Gone too soon...

As you all should know, Michael Jackson passed on just a fews week ago... His passing was a shock and lost to me, but it hurt me more when i watched the memorial yesterday. It really hit me...

I grew up listening to Michael Jackson's song... Remembering watching his music video of him and Michael Jordan in the movie Space Jam... His life was filled with ups and downs but he still continued on performing for his the love of his loyal fans.

What I like about him is not only because he is a GREAT entertainer but he had great love for people. No one showed Love the way he did... Michael grew up to a father who was harsh towards him since the day he was born. Even though Michael was a star when he was young, his father didn't spare the rod on him. He would get whip for singing out of tune and Michael was afraid of him that he would sometimes faint at the sight of his dad. His father didn't want them to call him Dad. When he was in his teens, Michael, like us, had to go through puberty. Puberty was a painful experience for Michael because his face was covered with pimples and his father would even call him names. THIS, may be the reason why Michael is so sensitive to his face that he didn't think it was perfect and wanted to change it. Imagine what kind of father that is... I wouldn't blame Michael for doing all those plastic surgery and correcting his face, i would blame his dad... BUT, Michael didn't, he forgave his dad...

Even how successful he was at a young age, Michael didn't have a happy childhood. Before he was 12 he was forced to be a man. He couldn't hang out with his friends, sleepover or go to the candy store simply because he was too famous. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, he would sometimes cry from loneliness... Maybe that was the reason he builded a amusement park in his house, he wanted to feel like a child. Because he hadn't a chance to be happy, he invited children to his house to play so that he could see their happy faces, having fun!

Ya, you may have heard from the news about his charges against him and think he is a child molester. But have you ever wonder and think if those stories about him was true. You may think everything coming from the news is always true, but have you go and find out the real truth. Sometimes we humans never put ourselves in other ppl's shoes even if we are always reminded to. We judge other ppl but we don't like other ppl to judge us? Like what michael said: it's human nature.

I think God send Michael to earth to be a man of love and yet he is criticize and attacked emotionally at. Other than God himself, Michael jackson is the most loving person the whole world has ever met. I bet you didn't know that he holds a Guinness world record of 'most charitable entertainer', see. He writes songs about love, our children's future, racial harmony and the world. Have you ever seen how caring he is as a person? No, because ppl don't give him credit for being nice but writes about his flaws... Isn't it weird?

But eventhough he is gone, he name will always be in the history books and his name will be with us forever!! God bless the Jacksons and goodnight...

Chaooo,
