Seriously though, all things aside; Media. Scandals. Hatred. Whatever negativity that showered Mr. Jackson in his life could not get even slightly close to one fact (to some an opinion): Michael Jackson is great.
I wonder how many people my age think about greatness. Not speaking about Michael Jackson's, but about their own definition and concept of greatness. I think about it everyday. Every hour. Every minute and second.
To those of you like me, I don't know why the desire (not the need) for greatness is planted in our mines. It could be the media's fault; or maybe it's just something we've always wanted...Just a side note, no matter how much you want or think you need to be great: NEVER sell your soul for it.
I'm an artist who dreams of being successful, famous, and revolutionary. When speaking in terms of greatness these are just some of the words and cliches thrown in the same melting pot. But one thing's for sure, I can never put fame or wealth before my life, which just so happens to be the visual Arts.
Ssssooooo what does Mike have to do with this?? He's just one of the many people that come to mind when I think of the word (not gonna repeat it). So to Mr. Jackson; Rest In Peace.
END.
