This day you left us has not gotten any easier my brother, it’s just gotten farther away. And actually, the fact that you still would have turned only 35yrs old this month, somehow breaks me even more inside. You were a true artist and innovator, the very definition of what a creator is. Celebrities you interacted with inevitably stole your originality and ideas. They would meet you, and in their very next video or concert, there they were, shamelessly having stolen something from you. But they could never carry it off with the soulful honesty you had used in its creation, nor carry it off with the comfort that came with your spirit in its display. You were never a part of the Zeitgeist, you defined the Zeitgeist. And while all of that made you special, what truly made you special and unique was the LOVE you felt and shared with everyone you knew or encountered. You left lasting impressions on people who only ever met you once. People constantly tell me their stories about meeting you, and how you left them with the feeling and understanding that they had just met someone unique to this world, someone they felt they had been blessed to have experienced. If they could only imagine what it was like to be with you everyday. To love you so deeply, because the love you gave was greater than any love I had ever experienced in my life, and that I know I will never encounter again. You truly were not of this world, and I can only believe it was the pain you witnessed, that made it necessary for you to leave it. I can’t believe it’s been 8 years. My house still vibrates from the energy you infused in it and I know it forever will, just as the energy and love you blessed me with, will echo into eternity with me. Thank you for everything family. Thank you for defining us as family, and thank you for the love we shared as family. My love for you last beyond forever my brother.
