The Mike I know and love...
please, enjoy
a letter to a love that has endured...
Some of my most joyous moments have been shared with Michael Jackson! That man moves me to my core...or shall I say, it's the spirit that lives inside that phenomenal human being that rattles me so. I'm so very proud to be a loving fan of his; actually, I'm honored to be able to say it.
I've been taught to be compassionate and humbled by many vehicles, but I must say, he has reached me. His message was profound, yet clear and powerful enough for me to not only absorb, but also process and store what I'd just learned. And, the absolute best thing about it, was, he did it in such an artistic and creative manner. The ultimate ENTERTAINER! I'm proud to be a fan. I'm grateful I've lived through, yet another historic time. To watch him live and for him to be such a huge part of my life. I'm very proud of you Michael Jackson.

My mother would probably disagree somewhat with my next statement (don't get it twisted, she IS a MIKE fan!!!), but, I believe in the deepest part of my heart that, yes he is "different" from whatever the "norm" is ( I truly don't believe in norm. I believe in being whoever "you" are, which isn't the "norm" as we are ALL incredibly unique...created and designed by God! No norm there.), but, that's what makes this mysterious genius so. I can't think of a person that I have ever known or have encountered that hasn't scrutinized, judged and persecuted the "King of Pop", but the beautiful thing about that is, he is original and could never, ever be duplicated! Ever! That's more than I can say for most people, as most people are too afraid to allow themselves to become vulnerable enough, to ever have the courage to truly show themselves to any one person, let alone an entire world! That takes guts! Most people do a lot of pretending and hiding behind other people. But, that's neither here nor there, because it's all about Mike, let that be the reason...
It takes a pretty, phenomenal spirit to reach as many people as he has. And, talk about an extraordinary mind and a spirit that lights up spirits and create genuine smiles globally; which means, in every corner of every part of the world, where there are people living, he was been celebrated, loved and embraced. For every one person that has disliked him, there were 5 that connected with and unconditionally loved him. I'm grateful his next stop was to a place where he will no longer be torn down by maliciousness, including the media, closed-minded individuals, or those that are too afraid to reflect and look into their own spirit and begin to learn about the "light" within. Check the "Man in the Mirror".
Michael's energy unique, his sweet, gentle spirit was battered by some very unlucky people. They cheated themselves of such radiance and beauty, shame on them. His life was one of which no one has ever experienced and probably, we won't ever witness anything that resembles it again; it's been something to watch and what's so unfortunate is, that he, has never been provided an opportunity to explore it freely while on earth, which is one of our most precious and simple gifts, provided by God.
Thank you Mr. Jackson for entertaining and intriguing me for my entire life. Thank you for sharing your life with me and the rest of the world...thank you for being brave enough to do so. Thank you for inspiring me. Thank you for opening doors for many people. Thank you for your spirit...you have touched so many, so deeply. You should and shall be celebrated! You are a beautiful person and I absolutely, Love you. I always have and still... :)
I pray for your spirit to remain at ease and peace; for you to gain all of the beauty that you would've liked to have seen and experienced here, on earth. I extend prayers to your entire family, all of your fans, friends, and even your critics and haters. May we all be blessed and allow God's love and beauty to shine and permeate from within throughout our spirits, then permeated into the "earthly" world.
I love you Michael as you mean so much to me and are my inspiration. I'm extremely grateful that I've been afforded the opportunity to witness your life. You are an amazing spirit...
Love Always,
kjj
P.S. there will be a second part of this love letter...stay tuned

It is always sad to lose someone with such a great talent. Some people are just meant to be immortalized. I think Michael Jackson is one of those people.
His music will span generation after generation...he will be missed...
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, my friend. I think many are doing the same...
Blessings to you,
Mattie
I agree. I don't think the world was ready for Michael Jackson, but it would be a better place if it were.

You have just said it all! We sisn't appreciate what we had in Michael, myself included. But I remember during the most important transistional stages in my life, Michael was there, giving me some very much needed words of inspiration, and wisdom.
His life alone was an inspiration. The many, and sometimes disgusting allegations made about this man - as you said he was heart broken, and I think if it was me- I would've given up a long time ago in the face of Michaels demons.
Thanx for the post, for sharing your heart-felt thoughts.
