Due to technical difficulties You Tube Tuesday (yes, I changed it to Tuesday because it sounds better!) was delayed. I was going to do two separate posts for each day, but I realized that what I wanted to talk about could be done in one post.
Michael Jackson passed away on June 25th, 2009 at the age of 50. He was such a huge influence to me. I have so many musical memories attached to Michael, and each of his albums lay out like stepping stones on my life's path. I remember waiting eagerly at the front door for my father to come home from work with the the latest Michael album, looking at the artwork over and over again, feeling the grooves of the record in my hands, committing all the lyrics to memory. It was a ritual for me.
I was so shocked to hear of his passing, but if anything it helped me to remember how great an entertainer, and humanitarian he really was.
So today I've decided to post 'Man In The Mirror' in memory of Michael, AND for Healing Wednesday.
Listen to the song, watch the video and think about the lyrics please. Maybe we can all make a change somehow.

Rest in Peace Michael
