Hi Everyone,
During the Anniversary of MJ's passing, I was looking through all my MJ CDs and wondering why I still feel as if I have lost someone so very special that my heart still aches.
I was thinking about the main reason Michael is so special to me, and I figured that it's because I feel that Michael Jackson has "raised" me just as a parent would raise a child.
I was 11 when I became a fan and Michael has been in my heart ever since.
I'm nearly 21 now and I feel as if I would not be the same person if Michael had not come into my life.
He was (and still is) like a parent, a mentor, or a teacher to me.
He is someone to look up to, follow, imitate, and learn from.
Does anyone feel the same way??
To me, Michael bears a similarity to Sidney Poitier's character in the film 'To Sir, with Love'.
The lyrics to the theme song of this movie resonate strongly with me and I would sing this to Michael if I could:
Those schoolgirl days, of telling tales and biting nails are gone,
But in my mind,
I know they will still live on and on,
But how do you thank someone, who has taken you from crayons to perfume?
It isn't easy, but I'll try,
If you wanted the sky I would write across the sky in letters,
That would soar a thousand feet high,
To Sir, with Love
The time has come,
For closing books and long last looks must end,
And as I leave,
I know that I am leaving my best friend,
A friend who taught me right from wrong,
And weak from strong,
That's a lot to learn,
What, what can I give you in return?
If you wanted the moon I would try to make a start,
But I, would rather you let me give my heart,
To Sir, with Love
****
Does anyone else feel that Michael Jackson has raised them?
