I have been a subscriber to Essence for many years. Over the years, I have felt the urge to write and let you know how this magazine has touched my life but I never did, not until now. Thank you for the SPECIAL MICHAEL JACKSON 30-PAGE TRIBUTE. As one of your article stated, - he made race bow down to humanity, a celebrity akin to touching the sun. As a social worker, I feel regret that he gave us so much and no other human was able to be there for him in his time of need. In the end, I wish he knew how many strangers deeply loved him as a person and cared about all the things he did for humanity. I am one of those strangers. BE AT PEACE M.

Too bad so many miss the point on this board. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion no matter how ignorant we may view some of them to be. I for one am happy and proud of these two beautiful children. Mom for allowing them to be little girls despite their station in life right now. Dad for being a very capable president doing us proud. The girls for just being their natural fun curious sweet selves. Time goes by pretty fast so explore and enjoy first family.
