Biggest lesson of the last few years: if you are waiting for JFK Jr and Michael Jackson to take the stage together to do a duet, then you have missed the point. It's an internal journey — you are the plan, they are not. This is only as good as our collective will to step up, reconcile and reform the parts of our own lives, so as to become fully accountable.
My sense is that the "out there" stuff happens as we begin to collectively abandon the hunt for it. The wait forces us to stop seeking external salvation, at least in the temporal. Indeed, it is the reverse... JFK and MJ are desperately waiting and eager to meet the real and responsible you, so please step up and level up!
I always thought of them as the celebration. When we get through this storm. I would love to know if they are there. I am not expecting a concert...heck I don't even know if Jr can sing. But the smiles and complete joy they would bring would be the perfect ending or new beginning for everything we have all gone through. They are missed and loved by many.
