Michael jackson Memorial --best ever tribute to the legend

world's best tribute ever to the king .. read it to believe it watch it to feel it

""All over world today people have gathered in love to celebrate the life of a man , that taught to the world how to love , people may be wondering why there is such an emotional outburst, but you would have to understand the journey of Michael , to understand what he meant to all of us , for these this city has a jack son family a mother and father with nine children, that rose from a working class family in Gary Indiana, they had nothing but a dream, no one believes in those days that these kinda dreams can come true, but they kept on believing and Michael never let the world turn him around from his dreams, I first Michael in 1970 Black expo Chicago IL , from that day as a cute kid to this moment , he never gave up dreaming .. it was that dream that changed culture all over the world , when Michael started it was a different world but because Michael kept going, because he dint accept limitations because he refused to let people decide his boundaries, he opened up the whole world in the music world he put on on glove and pulled his pants up and brought down the colour curtain and now our videos are shown ,and magazines put us on the cover it was Michael Jackson that bought blacks, whites, Asians and latinos together, it was Michael Jackson that made them sing we are the world , and feed the hungry.
Because Michael Jackson kept going he created a comfort level, when people then felt they were separate became interconnected with his music, and it was that comfort level that kids from japan Ghana and france and Iowa and Pennsilvania got comfortable with each other , to me it wasn’t strange to us to watch opera on the television and watch tiger woods go, those young kids grew up from being teenage to comfortable fans of Michael , to be a 40 years old and be comfortable to vote for president of color to be the president of United states of America, Michael did that and Michael made us love each other , Michael taught us to stand with each other ,they are those that likes to dig around mess but for me its around the world we gotta uphold his message , its not about mess its about his love message as you climb up the steep mountains sometimes you scar your knee , some times you break your skin, but don’t focus on the scars focus on the journey, Michael beat it Michael rose to the top, he out sang his cynics, he outperformed his pessimists, every time he got knocked down he got back up , every time we counted him out h came back in , Michael never stopped, Michael never stopped, I wanna thank Mrs Jackson and joe Jackson and his sisters and brothers for giving us someone who taught us love ,some one that taught us hope, we wanna thank you because we know it was your dream too, we know that your heart is broken , I know you have some comfort from the letter from the president of USA and Nelson Mandela but this was your chap, this was your brother , this was your cousin, nothing will fill your hearts loss , but I hope the love that people have shown would make you know he dint live in vain .. I want his three children to know , there is nothing strange about daddy it was strange what your daddy had to deal with and he dealt with it , he dealt with it for us, so some came today to say Mrs Jackson good bye to michael, but I came to say thank you, thank you because you never stopped , thank you because you never gave up , thank you because you tore down our divisons ,thank you because you eradicate barriers , thank you because you gave us hope , thank you Michael thank you Michael thank you Michael ….""
