You know, I’m probably going to go off on a tangent here, but…first off, there’s really not a whole lot more you can say about this individual…Michael Jackson has been a part of everybody’s life pretty much (even for the younger generation). When I saw the news and everyone’s tributes today, I came to a realization (correct me if I’m wrong), but we as a people really do seem to celebrate on the day of death for an individual over that persons actual birthday (which I admittedly had to look up…).
On another note, there are also folks that are obviously showing out for attention and fame, money, etc, etc. I was checking the news to find that Michael’s father, Joe Jackson, decided, on this very day, to file a wrongful death suit against Conrad Murray, whom we should all be aware of by now. Although his actions may have been genuine, I really can’t help but to question the whole timing of it. At the end of the day, I am not a Jackson, that was not my son and I nor anyone else will really know what’s truly going on unless you’re in that circle.
With that said, I will never forget him and will continue to rock to his music, not just on days to remember him.
