Happy New Year!

Here's a great song to listen to when thinking about New Years resolutions. Hope you enjoy! May all your holiday wishes come true. May you be blessed with good health and happiness in the new year and always. (...when I went looking for Micheal Jackson's 'man in the mirror' to post I ended up going on a bit of a jackson journey. Below, prior to the man in the mirror vid, is the url for a very young Michael's "Don't stop til you get enough" - the embed is disabled on ever post for this, however, it is worth the extra work to view it. Look at his expressions, the look in his eyes, the joy in his spirit. Could you imagine what he must felt. These new and exciting opportunities. Then you have the amazing opportunity to do a huge deal with pepsi. Imagine the trauma of the events, the chronic pain not just from having your head set a blaze (that terrifying ordeal) but, well, some peoples nerves act differently than others. He kept going. Doing what he had to to keep going. Poor fella. What would you do in his shoes. How would you feel? Imagine feeling that intense pain throughout your body, in the public eye, in the infantcy of your career, the emotional trauma of disfigurement and in the public eye. Could you imagine what he went through? If you then watch the 'official' Thriller video, the 13 minute deal-e-o, the way he looked made over into the walking, well dancing, dead, Zombie Michael, is the same way he looked the last years of his life (just a bit lighter... imagine the emotional trauma of all that, and the thing with his nose, the accusations. We just have no idea the intensity of it. Body riddled with unimaginable pain surrounded by people dictating advice on what he should do and how he should act. So much creative talent, a body thats botha blessing and a curse. I think he intended to "go" after the This is It project... planned death perhaps, his doctor doing him a tremendous favor knowing the consequence. Poor guy,hats off to him regardless of whatever circumstance. don't stop vid:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrPTDU40hO4
