Time to Move On

Song Lyric of the Day:

Build my world of dreams around you, I’m so glad that I found you / I’ll be there with a love that’s strong / I’ll be your strength, I’ll keep holding on

The Jackson 5 / “I’ll Be There

Like a lot of people today, I watched the Michael Jackson memorial coverage on TV. I watched mostly out of a need to say goodbye to a singer who played such a big part in my childhood, a singer I loved so much when I was little and for whom I grieved years later when his personal life spiraled out of control (to put it mildly) and that childhood idol was forever lost to me. His music was the soundtrack to many, many wonderful early memories, and I will always treasure those songs, their lyrics forever imprinted in my mind. I hope wherever he is now, he has finally found some peace. And now it’s time for all of us — particularly the media — to move on. Gone is gone.
