Love him or hate him, the King of Pop has left a forever impression on the entire world. There's scarcely a soul in the developed world who has not seen or heard of MJ and has some kind of memory associated with his music, his dancing, his art. I am so very sad that he has died today. There are certain moments in history that have happened in my life that I will always remember... the death of princess Di, the OKC bombing, the beginning of the Iraq War, the capture/trial/execution of Saddam Hussein, 9/11, and the death of Michael Jackson. No doubt there will be more moments in history such as this, and each one deserves its proper reflection.

If you take just 5 minutes to watch MJ as an entertainer, a dancer, an artist and musician, you cannot help but be in awe of his talent. Regardless of how you feel about him personally, you can't deny his brilliance on the stage. His songs are on the soundtrack our lives, and his styles, moves and sounds will be with us forever.

I've already seen titles on Facebook such as "The King of Pop Meets the King of Kings" and "You can't take it with you-- just ask Michael Jackson." Really people? I mean, really? Maybe I need new facebook friends, but that kind of bothers me. (Not enough to lose sleep, but again.... really?)

MJ was a tortured soul on this earth. I don't know if he knew Jesus, but I sure hope he did. People are so quick to judge, so hurried to make assumptions, and we forget that everyone we talk about on TV, in movies, in magazines are real people too. They have lives that are impacted by the opinions of others. I really think that we need to re-examine the way that we, as consumers, as humans, as Christians, buy into the media hype. One other example? Jon & Kate. Need I say more? **OK, sorry, getting off my soap box... that probaby didn't make much sense ayways!**

I could watch his videos for hours, just watching his feet. Uh. May. Zing!
