I recall sitting in my car in the parking lot of the sprint store (where I worked at the time) on a quick 15 minute break when I picked up a call from my brother to hear three words which would change the complete course of my day. "michael jackson's dead" he said. Although i've been blessed enough to never yet experience the loss of a loved one, in retrospect, the feeling I got when hearing MJ was gone was made me feel like I lost someone I personally knew. Michael Jackson made much more of a significant impact on my life than I consciously realized. He embedded the idea into my head to always be the best at anything that you do. To strive for and constantly pursue greatness but be humble and have the utmost care for all humanity regardless of race, status or any other societal factors. He made me realize the beauty and incredible importance of the imagination and how it can take you to the most elevated heights.
He was the greatest entertainer to ever live. Hat's off to the massive impact he's had on not only all things music, dance and art but overall humanity as a whole. A life cut short but an impact which lives on, forever in our hearts.
