This man’s existence determined unprecedented waves of emotions. His amazing talents in so many domains had made him probably one of the most loved persons that have walked the planet, but at the same time, the constant broadcasting of a wrongful image by press and other people had also made him one of the most hated person.
Years of contact with various people have let me to believe that it is almost impossible to remain impassible about him. You cannot but love him or hate him. Love is what he deserves in my opinion. I see him as being sensible and beautiful at heart, yet strong. His message got stuck inside my heart forever and i thank God that i am lucky enough to be contemporary with such an amazing person. Being a fan of his since i was a child, i can trully say that Michael Jackson to me is the best teacher i ever had and a true spiritual father to me. His words of wisdom found place into my heart, becoming golden laws that i try to live by. It isn’t always easy as unfortunately hate does make way into my life. Even if it seems illogical to me, there are a lot of people that do hate him, and some don’t even know it. I met people that hate him openly ,bringing press articles and their general perception of him as arguments, and while i strongly disagree with them, i acknowledge that at least these people are honest in their belief. i believe these people are simply blinded by misunderstanding and jealousy. but there are also people who don’t openly admit their hate and this, my friends, is what hurts me the most: people that say to your face that they love him just like you do but prove with their every breath and move that they don’t love him at all and that they don’t get his message.it is possible that these people don’t even know that their love is not real. I know it seems strange, yet i met these sort of people, and just to make it easier for you i’ll give an example: those fans that fight with each other over the MJ is dead/alive thing. I am sad to say i saw some saying very bad words to each other because of that. I know it is a sad and sensitive matter but i think we are all on the same side: Michael’s side.It is very important not to forget this.Do they love Michael only because they can see him, his body on the stage or because his love had touched their hearts in the most complete and wonderful way, thus changing their lives forever? And what about those people that are judgemental ? Saying about some of Michael’s most loyal friends that they are betraying him and his memory? I have no doubt that there were a lot of “snakes” around Michael but this doesn’t mean that there were only bad people around him. It’s not right to say someone is not loyal to him just because some fans don’t agree to what those people say.
I refuse to take sides on any matter that leads to hatred and bashing. I’ve recently saw a number of tweets coming from mj fans, to other mj fans that contained words that are unacceptable … it hurt my heart to see them cursing each other like that and if Michael would have seen that, he’d probably feel just as sad as i felt …
I love you all and thank you for reading this and try to be more Michael-like in what tolerance is concerned.
