Surprising things you learned from Michael

[Michael4MyLife]

Okay, I start:

1. That you can moonwalk without actually being on the moon.
2. That you can make more than one song named "Once More Chance" and have them all be great and unique to each other.
3. That love is a donut.
4. That you shouldn't break young girls' hearts.
5. That you need to love to create magic.
6. That being an amazing artist doesn't mean you're a good driver.
7. That playing Basketball with Michael Jordan can be tough.
8. That going to a movie theatre doesn't have to be that frightening. "It's only a movie" after all!
9. That someone can look cool even in Gold Pants.

That white socks aren't "square" but have potential to be magical (he explained this in his autobiography Moonwalk )

I always admired his level of excellence in his craft.

Good one

I often think about the fact that he had a lot of clothes that would look absolutely ridiculous on other people but he just looked stunning in them .

Can't contribute more though atm, I will have to think about it . I learnt a lot of things from him, but surprising, hmmm

Here are some, that are surprising in a way:

• that you can communicate with chimpanzees in sign language (not very surprising when you think about how intelligent they are, but still)
• that he is able to transport messages/feelings through his music, even if you don't understand the lyrics (as a kid I couldn't understand any English but still felt what he wanted to express)
• that people are more interested in someone's appearance/behaviour/relationships/... instead of just enjoying the art this person creates
• that there are no standards how men or women need to look like or to behave - he always stayed true to himself, even if these were traits or looks some people would see as female stereotypes - and again, people often don't get it and criticise and care more about these things, than...
• that it is still possible to be a loving and caring human being, even if a ton of bad things happend to you
• and that there are magical T-shirts wich can be ripped apart in one second and are whole again one second later and then ripped apart again etc.
