"A delicate soul in a cruel world..."

'nuff sed.

[baguiosky]

he was a delicate soul in the cruel world--- i resonate with that--- this aint the place and time yet for those delicate souls... and yet that place and time is just around the bend now

First time I heard somebody gave a sensible resume about the phenomena Michael Jackson. I stick to some ganja from the verdamper in the evening, and sometimes a joint or a pipe. MJ would be much better of, and growing ganja would give him a nice hobby too. Pity he got into the claws of the pharmaceutical horror industry.

I wonder why is everybody asuming that he was taking the drugs for recreational use or whatever and not ablt to beleive he needed them or a physician actually prescribed them cause he needed them.Its fact he went in pijamas to court cause he was treating a back pain in a medical center.So no news he was taking pain medication during the trial and after.I bealieve he had serius health issues,and ofcourse stress lot fo trauma and stress from the media

I think we can all identify with this story to a greater or lesser extent. Who amongst us has no shame ? Who amongst us is not concerned about appearance - this in itself shows that we are ashamed of some aspect of ourselves.

I think Deepak Chopra is high in this video. I mean look at 0:05 to 0:10

@AlphaDraconis7 the guy is a dumbass

this doctor is a fucking genius michael did not change his skin colour we know that the image that made michael changed was the cosmetic surgery this is a big word COSMETIC because this is all to do with the facial of the image. But the question was even if michael was alive to this day how many years would he last i mean he still wouldnt of stop taking drugs i know as a fact he ignored this doctor on several occassions

This is actually part 2

I think he may have taken something to help him sleep at night, something to help give himself energy in the morning, and perhaps something to ease his lupus ridden joints during the day. Then felt he couldn't live without his "reliable routine". But Michael was never taking meds to "get high and check out". Every moment of his life had purpose for him and he wanted to be FUNCTIONAL. He became frustrated when he COULDN'T live life to the fullest. This is my hypothesis.

Part 2

His sister Janet was on Oprah last week saying that the family tried several times to do drug interventions. They were afraid of an accidental overdose. Michael would shut down and not listen. He would go as far as tell body guards he didn't want to see family when they called or came to visit. She feels he became addicted again because of the pain and stress of the trial.

Do you really think so? (Hoping here)

What makes you believe that?
