Another average day?.... Well, it wasn't. Hyped up by the prospect of Transformers 2, it was supposed to be a very exciting day ahead. I guess nothing can be perfect, hah? Not even a day.
Well, it isn't common that I would wake up at around 6 when I had gone to sleep at 2 in the morning. Usually, it'd be at around noon when I would be up and getting ready for a brunch. But no, something got me up. It was a text message. Haha, how weird. Usually I'd just not realise it at all. Maybe I was aging I thought. After that, it was back to sleep for me.
Weird right? Perhaps it was really an indication given that friends have all had, supposedly, "signs" that something had happened. Well, when I finally did wake up, true enough, it was already 11 and lunch was ready. As I switched on the TV, my mum told me the shocking story. Couldn't believe it at first but when I switched on CNN, the whole tragedy shocked me. It has really happened. The King Of Pop, has really passed away.
Ironically, it happened 5 hours ago, about the time I had that sudden awakening. Coincidence? Well, let's just say that perhaps this has shook even the heavens above enough to awake everyone at that very moment in time.
Of course, it came as a big shock, seeing how his life was that he would go through almost everything, even hell and that back again if he already hasn't. For a gem like MJ, it seemed that he would be with us forever. But in truth, even if he was a legendary king, he was nonetheless, a human.
Towards the end of his life, he really suffered through many challenges and obstacles that has sometimes left him tired and deflated. To me, it was kind of unfair for a person who has done so much to the world to be treated this way in recent years. Sitting down on the couch watching MJ's tribute was a real eye opener. It made me realise how important he was to the whole universe. Being a fan of his music for years now, this has really been like a dagger through the heart. Haha, I actually shed a few drops of tears while I reminisce what he has brought to us in this era.
Nevertheless, his legacy will live on forever. What he has done to the world, putting aside from all that controversies which by the way now people say were untrue, will always be remembered and treasured in the hearts of all of us forever. As some people say, we are only remembered and appreciated when we are lost. How true. As for me, I'll continue to play this tiny album I got from Teddy just 2 days ago for the whole day. Michael Jackson's Greatest Hits : HIStory.
