Farewell Michael Jackson. May you rest in peace, and may your spirit soar high.

Today, I celebrate your life. Tomorrow I will do the same, even though my heart has broken with you gone.

Crazy how the media have turned the table and talk well of a dead man, after haunting his life.

If we are told by the media that elves caused it to rain, we would see proof of elves every time it rained wouldn't we?

Michael had always been a shining star that never extinguished in my eyes. He was a multi talented genius.

He changed how people accepted music by making it come alive.

Michael was the music's version of Martin Luther King. He blended races with his talents, pressing crowds of white and black people together, who were so overwhelmed by his greatness that they felt compelled to cheer instead of scream.

Yes, Michael did that!

He made peace and love with heart piercing lyrics that made every person, at one time or another, look his or herself in the mirror to seek self correction.

Yes, Michael did that!

And that is what I choose to remember.

Not the scandal. Not the physical transformations. Not the accusations or the lies.

I've rather decided to remember that Michael was a man who worked to use his talent to heal the world, to bring people together, and to bring a smile to the sick. My only wish is that now that he's gone those who believe in his mission would do the same.
