I cannot help but feel that Michael was sent to us for a purpose. I cannot make any sense of the things he had to endure and still show such compassion and humility towards all of his oppressors. It was never changing, no matter what tactics used against him.
From my experience, all he ever tried to teach us was to love the planet and children and each other. He didn’t spew venom against any religion, political or social affiliation, nothing that in my eyes would make him a target for ridicule. The only time he actually spoke out was when SONY wronged him after all the freaking millions he had made for them, and even that was not done in a selfish tone. He spoke up for ALL artists. That’s the way he was.
There was certainly more to Michael than could be seen on the surface and somehow it feels that he was persecuted because he was loving and loved by so many people; nothing more and nothing less. Yes, he had wealth unimaginable, but he wasn’t selfish with it. Money mattered largely for the good he was afforded to do for others by having it. He apparently gave more of it away than anyone else in the industry ever did. But his giving didn’t stop with money and tangible things. He gave his time, his heart, all of his creative ability to others to give them some joy and normalcy, making their lives on this planet meaningful, and that is what seems to me that people who were greedy and envious couldn’t stand even to the point of thinking he didn’t deserve to have it. So sad to know that all of his hard work for all of his life was looked at so shallowly.
It even appeared that they thought Michael was stupid and ridiculous and too eccentric to be so revered by the millions. But he proved beyond any shadow of the doubt to be bigger and better than any of them by simply remaining humble and beautiful, inside out. And that apparently was the greater insult to those who wanted him to break.
