The Passing Of A Legend -Michael jackson

Today were the funeral services of a legend,Michael Jackson,at the Staples centre in Los Angeles where living greats spoke of this legend this 'King of Pop' and paid tribute to him.As a young teenager I was listening to his songs,aping his steps, sprinkling powder on the floor trying the moonwalk and now my teenagers are crying to see their favourite singer pass away.
Indeed a legend has lived and died and entertained all and is now moving to entertain that King of All Kings in the greatest theatre of all.May his soul rest in peace this greatest of all entertainers,dogged all his life with controversies.
Only in death which shatterred all even his critics silencing them all, making them all acknowledge his greatness.
What a pity that we selfish humans in life hurt everyone and only death and the loss of human life makes us peer into ourselves and praise the one we wronged.
If only when he was alive and we had it in our heart to understand him would he have been peaceful and lived more to entertain us for a little longer.So cursed are we because of this limitation of our thought process
