My statement about him being his "own" person stems from the idea that he should take responsibility for himself and that since so many people want to blame the public I think they should give him more credit for his life- both the good and the bad! I don't think you can say how amazing he is without pointing out his downfalls, without one you could not have the other. More personally I was making no reference to his personal life more so about his role as a performer, entertainer and a charitable figure.</p>contessa188Mon, 17 Aug 2009 09:45:14 -0000http://captaindigital.net/2009/07/02/michael-jackson-and-web-traffic/#comment-12331856<p>I think that unlike frankenstein or any other character created, MJ was his own person. He demonstrated a personality like no other. I think that despite the "publics" role he was able to withstand the animosty against him and for that he is remembered. His love and kindness was able to shine through the hate towards him. For that he will be remembered. His effort to try and make a difference, is what people will remember. People will now since his death look to the good and what MJ has done. He was very giving and even though being famous he still maintained grounded. He will be missed. Regardless of his "tragic" life it was his own strength that made him what he is...not the public. I feel that with all his good qualities and the publics ability to tear people down it is not fair to give credit to anyone than MJ and his unique and deep loving spirit for becoming the great star that he is. He has set a new standard and has changed the world, with that said his status is well deserved!</p>contessa188Wed, 08 Jul 2009 16:40:26 -0000
