Fortune Tellers? Liars?

On 25 June 2009, a tragic news has been told to the world. The King of Pop, Michael Jackson, died at 50.

Many tributes have been made after the icon’s death. The best example would be more than 1500 prisoners in Philippines doing Thriller dance. All these tributes to Michael Jackson showed how much do people in the world respect him. The talented artist’s departure perhaps has became one of the biggest tragedies. However, there are some people who actually think his death amusing.

I accidentally read the frontpage of a journal, and what came into my mind was a few fortune tellers who commented on Michael Jackson’s short-lived life. They claimed that the entertainer’s appearance after several surgeries has shortened his life. Do you believe what the fortune tellers said?

Do you not think that it is ridiculous? Fortune tellers telling the public how is Michael Jackson’s appearance related to his death, after his is gone. If those “masters” were truly that damn good, they could have mentioned about it in the past decades. I wonder if they were mocking the big pop star, or catching opportunity to make some profits.

If I were to consult a fortune teller, I would not see them. I not only doubt their abilities, but feel displeased with their disrespectful attitude. They do not respect the dead, and that would make it difficult for them to earn respect. In order to be respected, you must first respect the others, no matter they are dead or alive.
