My Michael Jackson

This is my Michael Jackson. I know the song means many things to many people and it's interpretation has changed over time for me as well. Without a doubt, it is one of his most powerful songs.



"I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change..."

I hope his untimely death was not the result of the pills, powders, and/or potions (RIP Heath & Anna Nicole.) So many selfishly first blame, then become the addiction. It's a shame when it is hard to tell the difference between the person and the abuse and tragedy when we lose them.
