-- you have covered things I always felt, especially recently, so beautifully that you opened my eyes to ideas and reasons for the hoax and perhaps ideas as to what Michael's current location could be.
Back home -- hiding in plain sight, surrounding himself with peace and love to heal him of any pain he may be suffering from...
So this is why I always felt 'he feels no pain now', but NEVER agreed with 'dead' as 'where he is now'.
I feel his safety. I don't care to know where he is, I care about HOW he is.
I wish I could know how he's feeling, if he is happy.
After a near-decade (9 years) of Michael feeling so connected to my soul, and even spending a few years living only one hour away from him when he was still at Neverland,
I feel like I can sense if he's in pain or not.
I felt he was during the trial, but I sensed his calmness and certainty he'd walk off a free, innocent man.
Since 6/25 I felt he was and has been at peace.
Not because he was 'dead', but because... well, we know why, right?
We have a good idea, at least...
Again, you people are beautiful, please keep this thread alive with your thoughts.... <33
Quote from: browneyedgirl on December 11, 2009, 10:50:41 AMGreat, great, great work Souza. Thanks. It bothers me when people shriek out that maybe he is dead or that they're losing help, ET. Al. I personally am not looking to finally discover that MJ died. I believe like you that he is alive, and I'll always believe it.
I don't know how to explain it all, but for me these things stick out.
1. The messages and pictures shown at the Memorial upon reflection didn't scream finality. I chocked it up to my just feeling let down and disappointed that someone so giving and loving had to leave us so soon.
Something just didn't seem right. And then when Berry Gordy remarked that MJ made some questionable decisions, now in retrospect, I think he was speaking about this hoax for the most part.
Jermaine's singing the wrong words in "Smile" was very telling, and if not for the message being sent, one could have thought that he didn't know the correct words to the song. But we know he does.
2. Michael's children are very important to him. We don't know all of his reasons for doing what he did, but I think he wanted his children to be able to venture out into the real world. He wanted them to be able to cope as adults with the real world; although he knows that they will probably need bodyguards for the rest of their lives. He wanted them to have some freedom. He wanted people to see his creations and learn their faces.
The way he raised Prince and Paris reminds me of John-John and Caroline Kennedy. He admired their mother very much, and she edited his biography. He wants them to be giving and loving persons like he is, and he wants them to be cultured and learned. But most of all, he wants them to have some fun in their lives like they had at Neverland.
3. Now get this. I've been thinking a lot about this lately. I don't think it is that hard to hide one's self in plain sight, so MJ may be living at Encino, Las Vegas and Neverland. He is the master of disguises, and I think he turned the corner from just wearing hats and mustaches to hide who he was in public. That is one huge reason why he made the movie Ghosts. He wanted to actually feel what it was like to change into a completely new person, whether man or woman. Some think he was the blonde woman at the Memorial. I think he was Hat Man.
When Marlon made the reference concerning MJ and how he would always be able to spot him if in disguise, notice he mentioned years ago. He and the rest of the family know that MJ didn't disguise himself like that any longer. He went all out. He could grow taller (like in Dave-Dave). He could play a fat white man (like in Ghosts). And like some people think, he could even play a lady. So I think by Marlon making that comment was an inside joke.
Another thing that the family is doing is talking about "interventions", and whether or not they did any or should have done more. Why? I think the reason they are speaking out about it, after being asked of course, is because they have him captured now sort of speak. If he had a prescription pill problem, then finally they put their collective feet down and talked him into getting some help. If they are getting him some help now, then I sincerely believe that he spends most of his time at Encino, and when he goes out, he is either in full body and face disguise or they are trying to hide him like in the TMZ video where they are using a blanket of some kind hiding the children? What is that all about?
Plus, MJ did have Lupus, and his mother most likely talked him into moving back home concerning it too.
It may be about the fact that Encino is huge. MJ lived there until 29, and then he moved to Neverland. He loved it there, felt safe there and so on or he wouldn't have stayed there until almost thirty.
I think Joe Jackson and his mother finally did convince him to get away from all of those vultures and hangers on. I think Joe Jackson did finally get to MJ; although he is saying that he tried to get in the house but the security didn't let him. I think the family is bringing such things like that up because at one time it was like that, but finally they convinced Mike to reassess who he was dealing with as it pertained to whom he trusted with his finances, his well being and his children's well being and future.
Now as it stands, and with his being able to stay at his and his mother's house in Encino, only the children need bodyguards now. Of course though, if he ventures out with them, his body is being guarded also. His new managers will be his father again and his nephews. MJ knows his parents are getting older and he wanted to spend more time with them and to let his children spend more time with them and learn and grow from being around their relatives. MJ is content now probably, and may be living in the guest house or his old room there. I don't think he lived there at first. I think he was overseas. Maybe he was in Germany.
MJ's family will not let him be controlled by anyone ever again. They got his back now forever. They will carry him and protect him. He also knew that it was the J-5 40th anniversary this year and he wanted his family to get their due. He knows that he couldn't have risen as high as he did without them, Berry Gordy and Quincy Jones, for the most part. He realized again that he was loved by them all and with them, he felt safe. He may have been a little surprised at how well he fit back in with his family. He knows and understands now more than ever that he needed to let some bygones be bygones and trust and love his family again. Blood is thicker than water and everything. And nothing and no one is perfect. We're all only human.
4. I also believe that if MJ felt someone was trying to kill him, he needed to take action. Is there a safer place than "there's no place like home?" Because no one would know where he was headquartered and living, it became and is "a place with no name." The video of his brothers two days after 6-25-09 in the SUV with what some people believe was MJ in the back could definitely be true. If he is living at home, why would that be so hard to fathom? Marlon was wearing a FBI hat, and just the other day, he stated on TV that he is working for the government. Someone posted an article from February about his involvement in something in Africa, but I think for him to reiterate it now but not give up any info about it keeps it suspicious looking and is something to keep in mind. The brothers seemed too happy that day, what with their brother supposedly having just passed two days before. And they didn't want anyone gawking in the back seat. Something was up with that. They forgot to "hide every trace of gladness."
The entire family is just glad that he decided to kill several vultures with one stone sort of speak and go back home where he can clear his thoughts, and if on pills, wean himself off of them, and basically just be around so many family members that love him. Surely, they all know that money can't buy true happiness or love.
He's travelled all over the world, so he has been there and done that. That doesn't excite him anymore, and he hates to tour, so he is enjoying some down and out of sight time. He is enjoying watching his children enjoy.
5. The movie theory. I also believe very strongly that all of these things ties together. Throughout it all MJ was working on a movie, This Is It. There are a lot of messages within the movie. He truly was also working on all kinds of things. We know that if his name is to be attached to anything, he would want it to be classy and right.
Plus, he is finished with touring and writing music per se. He wants to direct and produce movies. That is his future and contribution to the arts.
6. So what's out right now in MJ's image and name?
A. music & catalogs - plus, a lot of unreleased material (some dating back decades)
B. movie
C. books - Opus
D. video game
E. potential musical
F. doll
G. comic book
H. cologne
I. paintings (ones he painted, 1984 Warhol portrait and his art collection) - <!-- m -->http://www.juliensauctions.com/auctions ... l-jackson/<!-- m -->
J. children
K. biopic being planned
L. instrumental album (classical) <!-- m -->http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/enterta ... tal_a.html<!-- m -->
M. maybe Jordan Chandler's admission of lying
N. media's hatchet jobs against him revealed -
<!-- m -->http://weeklyworldnews.com/headlines/93 ... own-death/<!-- m -->
7. Making money from this hoax is a byproduct of his having to do it. I think MJ hoaxed his death for a lot of reasons. I think he watched the "Dancing with the Stars" finale with his mother and children at his Encino home. He is freer now than he's ever been before, even though he's supposedly died. He is working on new projects and is teaching his children. He may travel to another safe and secret house from time to time. He may be receiving some kind of health treatments for his Lupus. Whatever he's doing and for whatever reasons, he deserves it, because for over thirty years, in some ways, he lived like a virtual prisoner in his own home and skin, and the press has ridiculed and persecuted him unmercifully.
For some reason, I believe he is breathing and enjoying himself, and is taking care of any health related issues.
