An Emotion-Filled Treasury

[wlotus]

A fellow Etsy artist has created a treasury in honor of Michael Jackson. I am deeply honored that my photo, Emotion, was included in the collection.

All of this weekend, 98.7 KISS fm has honored Michael Jackson's life and legacy by playing his music and allowing listeners to share their memories of him. The announcement Jermaine made of his passing seems surreal; part of me still doesn't want to believe it's true. But I am enjoying the outpouring of admiration for his music and humanitarian efforts. He inspired a lot of people. I can only hope to similarly inspire people with my life and work, too.

You got into the Treasury! Eeee! That's a really good sign, and a great way for your work to get seen by the larger Etsy community.

I'm feeling fairly disconnected about Jackson, having largely missed his prominence in my childhood, not being exposed to much popular music, but I hear you on that, too.

I missed his prominence in my childhood, for the same reason. But I am glad that once I was on my own and able to explore music for myself, I found and enjoyed his music.

Congratulations. I have also been thinking alot about my own artistic contribution to the world since Michael died. I feel infinitesimally small.

You're one of the big cheeses in my world.
