The biggest takeaway comes through the lyrics of the tune, Man in the Mirror, "If you wanna make the world a better place, Take a look at yourself and then make a change." Thank you Michael Jackson for your words of wisdom. You are a true treasure and have made the world a bolder brighter place just by being in it!! If any and all of us had an iota of the courage chutzpah and moxie you embraced, we might be able to imagine living life in peace!
