    My name is Mike Posner, I’m from Detroit, MI and I’m a Grammy nominated singer-songwriter.
    After my dad passed away, I felt stuck under the weight of my own life. In 2019, I walked across America in order to find out who I was when I wasn’t “Mike Posner, Grammy nominated singer-songwriter.”
    The journey changed my life and when I crossed the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, I decided what I wanted to do next...
    Climb Mount Everest.
    Two weeks after I finished walking, I began training with my Coach Dr. Jon Kedrowski.
    While the Walk Across America was about myself, I want my climb to be about others. My father, rest his soul, was a criminal defense attorney in Detroit for 40 years before he died.
    That’s why I’ve decided to dedicate my climb to raising funds for The Detroit Justice Center - the only organization of it's kind doing criminal justice reform work that would make my dad beam with joy - and it's led by Black women.
    I couldn’t be more honored and humbled to support them. I need your help. Please donate whatever you feel called to do. If you aren’t in a position to donate, please post or share this link. I thank you. I love you. Keep Going.
    About Detroit Justice Center:
    The Detroit Justice Center works alongside communities to create economic opportunities, transform the justice system, and promote equitable and just cities. DJC is founded on the belief that we cannot build cities that work for everyone without remedying the impacts of mass incarceration. This mission requires innovative ways of community lawyering-rooted in defensive and offensive fights for racial justice and economic equity-that build up our poorest residents through direct services and novel approaches to land use, housing, and employment.

      You don’t have to be jealous, you can recover from any trauma as well! A good therapist is a must, but otherwise you can choose your way to become a better person😉🌈
      Well you only will start the process once you have lost everything what you loved, so if you are not yet there than it doesn’t matter what I say to you, but I like to talk and you, ‘Goodbye Mr. Anderson’ seems to be an open minded, honest, responsible, loving person. So I am not afraid to take any pills in order to waking up from the matrix.
      I also like to talk to people who puts their frustration on others while not showing their identity, that is like an asshole without a face: you put your shit here, but you don’t shine your light. I don’t know who you are, but if I would know you I would love to tell it into your face that you are the problem!😘

My Dad, My older brother, (46) My older Sister from Cancer at age 50 and My Mom last.. I know how you feel. Know that you're Dad isn't gone forever- Hes just slipped the veil beyond and checks in on you from time to time. Speak of him often he will hear you and send signs that only you two will understand. Someday you will see him again. Hopefully for all of your fans MUCH Later like when you're 100. Your music is that of a poet. I thought real musicians were gone and then you Avici and post Malone came along.. much Love Brother and Much Respect 🙏 - an old noodling guitar picker.

But I believe that you will make it to the submit with the help of our local Sherpas, support of welcoming people and DAL BHAT of course. LOL
