    THIS - "it takes a fellow sufferer, a fellow survivor, to sort of understand each other" Elizabeth Taylor - Soul Mates aren't necessarly the people we marry - It's just the ones who GET US.

    Elizabeth Taylor had a major crush on Michael Jackson. Very obvious. Who can blame her? I think they had a crush on each other. If they had been closer in age, they would have been a great couple. They were very much alike in a lot of ways. But, they were great friends. Thank God for that.

    This a totally awe inspiring speech that gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. I hang off every word the beautiful and gracious Elizabeth says about an equally beautiul and gracious Michael. Such an eloquent and insightful woman Elizabeth is. Everything she says is true. She's a total delight to listen to and I am so glad these two amazing people were friends. I can see what they saw in either other. Both very special people. thanks for sharing this amazing speech.
