Rest well Michael


I opened my ees to tears this morning. Blurry-eyed I checked online, hoping it was some sort of twisted joke. Except that it wasn't. Michael Jackson's gone. For now. He did all he came here to do, set himself an incredibly hard life to live, sacrificed his heart to create the sweetest music ever. The man lived, loved and entertained. He changed the world, the changed music, he changed lives. He didn't just walk down the path of fame, he was the path of fame. He was a little boy with the voice of an angel. He grew up to be a man, with the pure heart of a child, and still the voice of an angel. People may say what they want to about him, but Michael Jackson wasn't just the greatest musician here. The man was music. He embodied everything beautiful. So beautiful that the world didn't know what to make of it, and resorted to the only reaction they could muster. They ridiculed his beauty. They laughed at his angelic voice. They didn't understand this child-man. Maybe that's the lesson he set himself to learn from this life. 
Be at peace now Michael. Get your rest. You did well love. You did very well. See you another time.

  1. I agree with you. Most of the true saints are not recognized during their sojourn in this world. MJ was a living saint but most misunderstood person. Listen to his music, listen to his childlike talk. No man with guile in his heart can sing like an angel. Sad! We killed him. As we have killed many other legends. We listened only to his music but not the innocence of his heart. We will be judged for this.
