“Michael Jackson may be the purest talent I’ve ever seen.  He’s incapable of a false moment.”

Sidney Lumet

From Michael…

“Prince, I wish for you to learn about perseverance and confidence and the true meaning of success…which is LOVE. 

And, that you can reach any goal that your heart desires.  It’s totally up to you.  You can be anything you want to be. 

And, I love you.”

For Prince

How does one throw dance into the lives of multitudes?  How does one bring curve to the straight lines that cripple so many?  How does one become a tangible part of the lives of people from different cultures, all ages and religions and colors?  How does one inspire seeds to unfold into flowers?  There is around Michael Jackson a light which radiates delicious opportunity, bringing personal human stories to the big stage with textures that translate into pure soul.  His musical and visual landscapes have left so many eager vessels, ready to receive and share what he has bequeathed to the world.  The good in his actions lasts.  We are magnetically drawn, as the messages of God are revealed.  Michael did not dream on a budget.  Although many, trapped in their imaginations with no way out, held onto the “candle-snuffing word just” (Finding Neverland), Michael spread his wings and taught us how to fly.  It was never just an empty promise or illusion.  ~What you believe you become~ No matter the volume of those who “enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought” (JFK), we have become addicted to the light, understanding that the deeper the feeling, the greater the pain.

“Few men are willing to brave the disapproval of their peers, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of their society.  Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence.  Yet, it is the one essential vital quality for those who seek to change a world that yields most painfully to change.”

Robert Kennedy

Michael Jackson’s spiritual health often was shown in his capacity for enthusiasm.  As he spoke to Prince, he helped his young son realize the value of confidence and perseverance.  Along with his three children, we all feel Michael watching over our dreams, his glowing light leading from the back, as all good leaders do. Our fight to defend Michael Jackson is not over because we live in a world which often reflects Eckhart Tolle’s words:  “There’s a huge amount of suffering that is generated not by the actual challenges of life, but by the fictitious problems the mind generates.”

~I will always be Peter Pan in my heart~Michael Jackson

Michael’s irrepressible youth powered a light, enveloping him, and electrifying ours.  Genuine and of pure intent, we see the gateway standing wide open.  As we look through, the paths ahead provide the realities of suffering and pain, the magnificence of imagination and wonderment, the tapestry of our unique gifts, opportunities to reach our potential…and the blueprint for all:  LOVE. 

~Truth so ecstatic, yet so plausible at once~ academic structure, but so emotional and incredible~

Saint Teresa  (Siren)

The gift of seeing Michael happens everyday…just by believing…opportunity for us all to be able to serve others, and share our unique talents.  With divine light…MICHAEL’S MESSAGE IS LOVE.

~Michael, we can see your HALO…you’re everything we need and more…we’re surrounded by your embrace~  Taken from HALO by Beyonce

“You are the flash of the lightning bolt

Electrify my soul

Take me to your darkest place

The truth shall make me whole

You are the radiant light of the world

Forsaken once again

But kingdom come, Thy will be done…

Forever, and ever, Amen.

“Too often we honor swagger and bluster and wielders of force; too often we excuse those who are willing to build their own lives on the shattered dreams of others.” JFK.  God comes through a person to us.(Sue)  When that person is a dreamer, an inspirer, a believer, a peaceful warrior seeking to improve the lives of others, one who knows suffering and childhood pain, one who possesses a boisterous inner child…someone who truly loves from the heart…our confusion and misdirection dissolve.  We are sharing a short moment in life, and we refuse to allow tragedy to be a tool for living.  Instead, we gain wisdom from the light.

There was a time when I was alone

Nowhere to go and no place to call home

My only friend was the man in the moon

And even sometimes he would go away too

Then one night, as I closed my eyes

I saw a shadow flying high

He came to me with the sweetest smile

Told me he wanted to talk awhile

He said, “Peter Pan-that’s what they call me.

I promise that you’ll never be lonely.”

And ever since that day…

I am a lost boy from Neverland

Usually hanging out with Peter Pan

And when we’re bored we play in the woods

Always on the run from Captain Hook

“Run, run, lost boy,” they say to me

“Away from all reality.”

Neverland is a home to lost boys like me

And lost boys like me are free.

He sprinkled me in pixie dust and told me to believe

Believe in him and believe in me.

Together we will fly away in a cloud of green

To your beautiful destiny

As we soared above the town that never loved me

I realized I finally had a family.

Soon enough we reached Neverland

Peacefully, my feet hit the sand

And ever since that day…

Thank you, Natalia and Sue

“Neverland represents the totality of who I am.”  Michael Jackson

“Where have you taken us?”

“This is Neverland.  Peter Pan lives here.”

Seth Riggs

You’re everything we need and more

It’s written all over your face

~Michael, we can see your halo~
