Hello everyone. I send my warmest greetings to all of you.
As I am a new member here, I will gladly introduce myself. I, like you, have watched these last three years and some months very attentively. More so than I ever did previously. For reasons I do not need to mention, since they are more than obvious.
Some of you may question why this post isn't in the 'Introduce yourself' section. The reasons for this will become apparent as you get deeper into my post, only if you wish of course.
An introductory post is not the sole purpose of my post, as it significant. The message I am bringing forth, I feel, holds the importance. I would like to be direct, to the point, and poignant with my words. I will avoid all game playing and cryptic messages which hold no substance, which is very rare in this
community as you and I have both noticed. Time runs short these days, as does patience, I understand.
The sole purpose of my post is to add a perspective to this so called hoax community, if you will. My main point being, is that Michael Jackson is a human being first.
Now, you may read this and say, "Of course Michael is human."
I don't feel this is clear enough and is very vague, so let me elaborate.
He is human first. A lot of things are very much so blown out of proportion with great amounts of phantasm, hopes, desires, and dreams when it
comes to Michael.
For the majority of us, we felt we lost something on June 25th and the pain that it brought was unbearable and absolutely impossible to recover
from. So, a few months passed and we started to indulge in fantastic ideas and theories that projected our deepest desires and hopes for
Michael. Mainly that he was alive and that he would surely return. I use the term "we" because I was not always innocent of this. I sat around day in
and day out in front of the computer screen, letting life pass me by while waiting for clues and recent discoveries to be found by so called hoax investigators that supported the notion that he was alive. It was very comforting.
While in the midst of this, I forgot the fact that he was human. He was a mortal, imperfect, and had his flaws just like every other person on this
planet.
Some of you may take offense to this notion, but allow me to explain.
Michael Jackson was an artist, that's fully understood. But do we also recognize that he was a showman? Some of you may refer this back to
the "hoax", I however am not referring to it at all. I am referring to his career.
The truth is, is that Michael created an image for himself. An image that appeared larger than life and greatly eccentric. Yes, created.
This image was both a blessing and a curse. He could inspire a large audience to "make that change", but he could never let his true self show through in it's entirety. He showed few traits of his personality, in this respect. This caused him to be immensely private and cautious of whom he befriended. It also lead to him aiming for friends who were mostly unaware of who he was, or who didn't see him as a larger than life artist, but as a human being. That
is part of the reason he associated himself with children.
Anyone in his inner circle was aware of Michael's protectiveness of what was exposed of him publicly. It also lead to erroneous assumptions
created by the media and people who didn't care to seek truth.
It soon became a prison, that unfortunately he could not escape.
With that, I would like to tackle one of the huge notions that exist. Mainly the idea that exists that he is capable of everything and anything. He is an
intelligent person, true. But the human intellect (including geniuses!) is limited. Not one person on this Earth is capable of everything. This includes Michael.
As I mentioned, I was guilty of thinking along those lines. That was until I was awakened, by things that I'll let remain anonymous, at least for
now. I saw the case of Michael with profound clarity for the first time since his death, or for some of you, the so called death. It was not all that
I had believed so before. But this was fine, because I would rather know the truth rather than seeking things that comfort me or confirm my opinions,
no matter how false they are.
This will fall on some deaf ears, but it will fall on those ears who are meant to hear.
The most important thing though, is that we recognize that Michael Jackson is a human being, and to not expect too much from him. It's very selfish of us to do so. For we are asking of a man who is no longer alive. Even if he is physically alive, he is still dead. While his true personality may live, the artist that he created, died out. He is no longer connected to his life as he once was.
This includes waiting for a comeback, a "bam", or any of the like.
With that, I want to tell you all to enjoy your life. To not put too much expectations and time into this. The time of life is limited, please do not forget to enjoy it. There are beautiful experiences out there to be lived.
Lastly, In the words of Michael "I want to be "free, free like the wind blow...."
You're free MJ.
