GACKT Official Weibo update. Translation below:

I went into the car after my meeting’s over.
If I didn’t get back to Tokyo by night time I would miss the next meeting.

In the car,
my mind was thinking about various meetings.

“It’s already 18 years… Time passes so fast”

When the obituary was sent to me,
he has already passed away and secretly buried.

During 1999,
the me who cut off all ties with MALICE MIZER,
wasn’t being informed the news of his death, was a natural thing.
When I got to know of this news,
I was recording the song VANILLA.

When I saw his parents who came out to the front door to receive me when I arrived,
I couldn’t say anything.
My tears just suddenly fall and I couldn’t stop them,
the memories from then were still clear.

His parents welcomed me into the house with a smiling face and I chatted with them until the middle of the night.
From that year onwards,
I will visit him on him birthday and death anniversay.
And I’ll put my hands together and tell him about my situation.

“I’m going to start filming for a TV drama soon”
“I’m gonna have a Live at this place”
“I’ve decided to move oversea”

Now when I open the front door,

“You are back, it’s kind of far right?”

Just like my family member will come out to welcome me when I’m home.

I chatted with his father while we were having dinner.

“I’m already 80 years old”

When I’m leaving, both of them said at the same time that next time, I shouldn’t be so rush to go over, and hugged me with a smile.
Both of them has always been concerned about my health.
So what shoud I write about…

Lately, because of Mao’s incident, I have been thinking,
things about the “Sorrows of farewell.”

In the end,
no matter how I think, the things I can do now,
is to do my best not to forget those people.
After that,

“Today too I will do my best!”

Stick out my chest and live my life well.
Maybe I’m tired…

Come on, I can do it.
No matter how painful it is I’ll have to simle and live on.
I have to be grateful that I’m still living.
There have to be many things in this world.
This is life.
There have to be pain and suffering in life.
But,
we are still alive.

Today,
to those who left before me, it’s a future that they could not move on to.

So we have to smile and continue living,
to make them envy of us.

Then,
When we meet them again.

“We had lived a great life!”

To proudly say to them.

Alright…
I’m going to work today too.

Oo~sya!!
