When Michael [Jackson] had an audience with Pope Paul, he brought Seth Riggs his vocal coach along with him. While they were waiting to meet with his holiness in the outer chamber, a fly came into the room. It skillfully buzzed freely around them with a childlike freedom and Seth became so annoyed that he couldn't take it anymore and killed it on the spot. With tears in his eyes Michael asked, "Why did you do that?!" Seth retorted, "It was just buzzing around here, getting on my nerves!" Michael answered him like a Zen master and said, "He was enjoying his freedom and living his life and you ended it!" From that day forward Seth understood and he took on a deeper appreciation for all life because of Michael's compassion for a fly.
