I would definitely bring back Marilyn Monroe. She did not get the break in life or in show business that she deserved. Marilyn craved a family and a supportive husband but was also conflicted by her desires to be an actress. She valued her independence and didn't want to be under anyone elses care after she was spotted by talent scouts.
I feel that Marily was taken advantage of all of her life by everyone. She needed the emotional stability and confidence to say NO once in while when she didn't want to do something;however, I don't remember her ever saying that word. Can we respect a person who never has limitations?
I'd like to see a much more secure self-assured Marilyn whose artistic talents are under her control. Not vice-versa when emotions get out of control and must be quieted with narcotics, alcohol, several marriages, sexual escapades, therapists who charge too much, and studio bosses who constantly want you to perform and be on time.
Marilyn unfortunately never found that strength. She didn't understand that strength is built from the inside out and not the other way around. She must have missed that part of growing up - learning character values. I know she was raped and was not valued at all. That low esteem has a hard time ever going away. If she was in front of me now, tonight, I'd tell her that I've had a similar life of growing up neglected emotionally. The only hope in this big world is Jesus Christ. He has healed my pain and has taught me to love. I am forgiven and I walk with Him every day. He, Jesus is the only name under heaven by which we can be saved. Confess your sins, He is faithful and true to forgive you nomatter what you have done. You are now a new creature in Christ . Old things are past away.
