His earthly father’s name was Joseph.
He belonged to us all and founded it hard to give himself to one individual lover.
With us, he shared a heavenly Father. His presence lit up the world. The light he left behind will never go out. His smile shined so bright that those in countries near and far, smiled with him.
His voice touched our souls with an ancient truth that love is the greatest force in the world. He was and is the brightest of stars, in Hollywood and in Heaven.
I did not know him personally but he was my friend. When he sung, “you are not alone, I am here with you” it comforted my heart. Even men in prison founded a little escape from their mundane life as they honor the memory of him in their Thriller dance. And we couldn't take our eyes off of a whole prison yard dancing in unison to his beat, for a moment they were free. He reminded us and I will paraphrase some of his songs, that we must make a pact to bring salvation back to the world and to each other and where there is love he will be there.
He promised to reach out his hand to us and have faith in all we do; if we will just call his name and he will be there. How many of us have this much faith in our fellow human beings?
His final message to us was to heal the world, make it a better place for the entire human race. Can't you imagine him still dancing on the clouds, hat tilted to the side and his white glove flickering.
The celestial realm smiles in wonder at this star-child. His mission was to spread Love and this he did oh so well. To watch him perform was to understand the meaning of fun, laughter, love and joy. He was song and dance. He gave his all.
Watch footage from any of his performances, see the happiness in the faces of his fans and tell me he did not bring light to the world. He was Michael, an angel of light, our angel and no matter any mistakes he made. God has forgiven him for his temporary human condition. Can’t we?
Thank you Michael for sharing your gift with the world. As the world looks back on your life a year after your death, your electrifying presence is truly missed but we know the essence of who you really are will live on forever.
He was the son of Joseph, the one, the only, Michael Jackson.
