June 25, 2008, one of the world’s greatest performer died, Michael Jackson.
Nung una parang wala naman akong pakealam, ang alam ko lang gusto ko yung mga songs niya, pero wala akong pakealam sa buhay niya! But as days passed by, when all you can see, hear and watch were everything about his life, how he lived it, what he earned and what he gave, his life as a performer, a father, a brother and a true person…parang bigla na lang,“Shet! Patay na nga si Michael Jackson.” As if ngayon ko lang nakilala ng mabuti kung sino ba talaga si Michael Joseph Jackson.
Anyway…so yun nga yong nangyari, as in everyday na lang, nakikinig ako sa mga songs niya, nagsusurf sa internet about his life, nanonood sa youtube ng mga home videos niya, umiyak habang nanood ng concert niya, nakikipagkuwentuhan sa katabi ko sa office na isa ring die-hard fan ni MJ para sa mga updates and new videos na nakita niya. Parang daig ko pa ang naging EX-girlfriend ni MJ dahil hanggang ngayon hinde pa rin ako nakakamove-on. Sabi nga nila saken e…”Chai! Patay na…move on ka na!!!"
Pero sa mga napanood ko about him, nakilala ko siya, if not the whole MJ, perhaps a part of him that was so beautiful and pure…how much he wanted to live like an ordinary person, to have fun, to love, to be a good father to his children and to be the most generous person that he could possibly be. Many have ridiculed him, siguro dahil iba siya, me sakit, me diperensya, me panget na karanasan… but all those things were part of him being human. Ang importante, naging mabuti siyang tao. Kung hinde lang sana dumating ang mga taong sumira sa kanya...poor Michael…he might have been calling for help all his life but nobody was there to listen and protect him.
For me, he’s right when he said he wants to live forever. Yes he will…and he will never ever be forgotten…he will always be in our hearts. We love you MJ.
Ano pa bang pinagdadrama ko dito? Patay na siya e…me magagawa pa ba?
Makikinig na lang nga ako ng mga songs niya...haaayyy (*sigh*)
***By the way, I just wanna start sharing something everytime I post an ek-ek here in my blog. Alam ko very unlikely of me, but I just hope kung me makabasa man nito...baka matulungan siya...just like an everyday verse for everyday life. :)
On this day, God is telling us that we have the freedom to choose. In every decision we make, He is there to give us wisdom (sometimes through other people) to understand our situation and He sends the Holy Spirit to guide us.
Never make a decision without committing it to Him, and He will never leave us in the dark.***
