I just cant keep pretending that Michael Jackson's leaving isn't affecting me, when everytime I open a browser and I see news about him, I feel a terrible sense of sadness and loss.
Worse is, the more that I read about him the more that I like him.
Why wouldn't I? I grew up listening to "You Are Not Alone," dancing in the tune of "Black or White" and singing along to "Heal The World, Make It A Better Place..."
My fascination with M.J started when I found a wet pocket book in a deserted waiting shed, when I was on my way home, one rainy afternoon. The book was written by Marc Bego. The cover page says "Michael," written in bold letters, but it
didn't occur to me that what I brought home with me that day, was a Michael Jackson biography, a glimpse to his life and a lifelong liking.
I find it funny that now that Michael Jackson is gone, everyone is talking about how good a man he was, when during his trial, they almost as good as stoned him to death with their baseless accusations...hypocrites!!! .If these hypos showed their support when Michael Jackson needed them most, he wouldn't have incurred a sleeping disorder, he wouldn't have resorted to illegal medicine, and he would still be alive today...
Sorry Michael, this world isn't meant for beautiful fragile souls like you.
M.J.'s life showed us that its not money, fame, talent, success and power that will bring us true satisfaction and happiness. Its the day to day dedication and the endless belief we have in ourselves and in the people we love.
Too bad you're gone too soon...
Like a comet
Blazing in the evening sky
Gone too soon
Like a rainbow
Fading in the twinkling of an eye
Gone too soon
Shiny and sparkly
And splendidly bright
Here one day
Gone one night
Like the loss of sunlight
On a cloudy afternoon
Gone too soon
Like a castle
Built upon a sandy beach
Gone too soon
Like a perfect flower
That is just beyond your reach
Gone too soon
Born to amuse, to inspire, to delight
Here one day
Gone one night
Like a sunset
Dying with the rising of the moon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon

Beauty
It’s weird that I’m writing about this now, when this actually happened last week. I don’t know, I can’t take it out of my mind. I keep remembering that image I saw Friday early morning. So I have to speak now or I’ll have to forever hold my peace.
Friday early morning, I was totally bummed up about my PC having cookie and cache problems. It had been going on since I came in, Thursday evening, so I was already frustrated. While waiting for our technician to fix the problem, I opened the door, and there it was- one of the most beautiful sights I’ve ever seen. I’m merely talking about the sky with its really beautiful color and cloud formation. Call me sentimental, but I’m sure that what I saw that day wasn’t something that you see often.
There were times in my life when I was buried in problems and I said to myself that maybe there’s no God, that it will definitely take a lot of proof for me to believe in His existence again. Funny how looking at the sky that day, convinced me that I said to myself, maybe there is a God after all.
