Just A Man...
Monday, July 30, 2012
Through all the work that was done in this life it can still never be measured by any one person or tool. To have someone in a capacity to make you complete/whole is merely a desire of the heart. But when that heart is alone what is there left? Companionship... no not even that.
When you are born you are born of two beings. Two beings of which may or may not choose to be in your life. Two beings that are a free pass (vip tickets) to your almost every move. As we get older we search to find that soul mate in which we can share our life with to call our own. Not that in a paying kind of way, or a bought kind of way but in a damn way that simply means that you are MINE lol. Nah, seriously just someone to spend your life with be it good or bad. But as someone passed away the final words in the article simply said "He had no wife, nor children." That truly just bothered me. Although there was talk that he may have been homosexual (at which I really could care less of his sexual preference) I want to know why it had to be said that way. To me the words "He had no wife, nor children" means that he died just a man. Just a man with maybe a sister, brother, nieces and some nephews but no-one to be there for him when he came home. To call to vent to when he had a bad day. No one to kiss or tuck in at night. No one to walk down the aisle or stand up next to at a wedding. Just a man...
Now when you are just a man does it matter that you have been viewed by millions; Touched the soul of an entire culture and era of our lives? Does it matter that without knowing what your real birth name is someone may call you by your character name or imitate a(n) action that the world pieces back to you. Does it bother you that when they wrote that he died it said "first name last name, star of " tv show" has died? Because without saying what is role/character was on a particular show we would have kept scrolling and said to our self wtf is that. But I guess he meant something to me as I took the time to share my thoughts and feelings on "this man"..
Out of respect I shall name this man that had no wife, nor children....he is the late Sherman Alexander Hemsley star of The Jeffersons....character name: George.
