Thank You and R.I.P.

If I have ever wondered at any time if my choices in life were the right ones, this is certainly a time I am soul-searching that question more than ever before. With the recent loss of David Carradine, Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett and the great Michael Jackson all that goes through my mind now is 'thank God they were doing what they loved most in life'.

I used to watch 'Kung Fu' with my grandmother (my lebanese 'Sitto') who LOVED that show! David Carradine is a part of my life's memories with my Sitto. My family used to watch the Johnny Carson show and Ed McMahon is part of my life's memories with my family. My first 'chicks kick ass' heroes were 'Charlies Angels' and Farrah Fawcett is part of my important memory that girls really DO rock...at such a young age. My brother, Andy Kouri, and I grew up listening to Jackson 5 and Michael Jackson. We LOVED Michael Jackson! I lost my brother in 2007. My brother shared the same birthday with Michael Jackson (August 29th) and Andy loved that. Michael Jackson was there throughout my entire life with memories that will always remind me of my brother.

Rest In Peace to all of you. You all pursued what you loved to do...and I am doing the same. Thank you for proving how important it is to 'follow your bliss'...you will be missed.

xoxo, Maggie
