I was a ginormous fan of Thriller and begged my mom for everything Michael Jackson. As years went on I can safely say that my opinion definitely wained.
Tonight as I watch the re-run of the MTV music awards I get goosebumps for the words that Madonna spoke regarding his work and life. 
I think how so very sad it is that a person with such talent could be so sad inside. It really makes me stop and appreciate my simple life with all of it's complications and happiness. Even when it goes awry.....it never goes this awry. And I am thankful for that!
This was one of the most amazing performances I have ever seen....it's just so sad that tributes like this always occur after someones life has ended?!!? Maybe we should spend more time appreciating someone while they are here. Maybe we should have a tribute to people while they are still here to appreciate it?!?!
Even Janet took part in the performance...

Well I just had to share....so that maybe...just maybe we can take the time to try and not judge people so much...we don't always know what sadness they are living with. And we should really take the time to let the people that we love know how much we love them before it's too late...
Guess I just felt like sharing a feeling tonight......

Seriously, this year has just been too much. MJ and Farrah and now Patrick...sigh. Gotta live well while we're here and take good care of ourselves and each other!
ReplyDeleteWell said. I think the older you get the more you appreciate life and the journey that it is.
ReplyDeleteI was just telling one of my students today to slow down and enjoy the ride.
I agree, well said. Other than that tribute and one or two good performances, that show was a train wreck.
