Ohh Michael...why ?
Its been a SAD day....the first thing i heard as i turned the radio on in my car as we were going to work this morning....was the confirmation of Michael Jackson's death ???....ANd Nantha n i looked at each other n went ... WHAT !!!!!!!?? and there came the truth from everywhere...internet...cousin....friends...and the hardest part was to listen to all his songs being played on almost all radio channels....it wasnt just songs...it was my childhood memories being played.....made me realise how big a part of my childhood was tied to Michael Jackson !!! when kids now demand ....going to movies....shopping complexes....video games....theme parks and so on....all i needed was Michael Jackson at home in my humble cassette player....!!! I danced to his songs for hours....we memorized the lyrics which we got frm the back of the paper which is inserted in the cover of the cassette...yeah thats how we got the lyrics....and not from internets !
But to me....its had been so sad not just that he had died young or sudden or anything....its more about how he suffered all his life....isnt it an irony of life that a person who had earned 750 million and had several million fans to love ...was actually LONELY ?? So to all those who think money or fame can buy happiness ....please think twice...
in an interview of him as a child....he mentioned this " I only sing what i mean....if i dont mean it i will not sing it"....and he looked only about 8 years old there....isnt that an amazing statement from a child.....so can we say that he meant it when he sang...
" If you want to make this world a better place then take a look at yourself And make the change !"
and in another more recent interview when he was asked about sharing his room with boys ...with so much sadness in his eyes he says..." Whats wrong in sharing your love with children....? Dont you share with kids you love....even if they are not your own...? ".......my goodness that was soooo sad....
He also mentioned that he had struggled a lot as a child...and when he was asked .." Did ur father beat you?".....he paused for a second....forced a faint smile and nodded saying...."yes he did" now thats SAD :(
So....to me..this world is pretty cruel where...people do anything for attention and money...they dont mind killing even a star like Michael Jackson by ALL means !
I am not EVEN arguing about whether he really did those things he was accused of or not....i am just saying we are no one to judge anyone...and sometimes....somehow...human beings have the ability too see beyond a person's physical appearance....and be able to identify a pure soul...to me...thats what i see in him....i cant see anything evil behind that genuine smile....the painful smile despite being constantly humiliated by this INSANE world...
i guess GOD finally felt it was enough !!! May he rest in peace !
LOVE YOU MICHAEL !! The world had not had enough of you ! Wish you would come back !
Yes, it's rather sad to think of the consequences of life, especially to those whom we thought they had everything in life. How wrong can we be. But we can be glad that he did not suffer any sickness or was not bedridden before he died. At least his death was smooth sailing unlike his life. For all the goodness he has done and shown the world, he will surely be taken care well up there........
