My take on Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson had an unmatchable opportunity with his life, as each of us do…. to do phenomenal things. To change lives. To be someone that people follow towards something Greater than themselves. We have watched MJ search for meaning his entire life. I echo the sentiments of Faith. She says it very well. He had become a shell of a man and the true MJ died long ago.
I would add that when MJ died yesterday, hope was lost for the future of what he could become. That is the strange thing about death. Sometimes we are more saddened by the hope that dies with that person (and for that person) than the person himself. We must remember that Hope is never dead.
Life is but a vapor. Let this be a reminder to us all that we can become shells of who we once were. Even those we put on false pedestals are reduced to dust. We will certainly die one day, too. We will stand at the end of our lives and be asked, “Who did we make famous?”
