Jimi Hendrix was a gentle soul

Here's my own theory of Jimi Hendrix,

Jimi Hendrix was a gentle soul. He stood for love, peace and everything that was about justice. You can see the goodness from his eyes and hear his soul in his music. He was like some kinda music prophet sent from heaven for a limited time here on earth. The only thing Jimi Hendrix cared about was bringing people 2gether and making great music. He didn't care about all the hoopla fame had 2 offer, he knew what his calling was so he followed it. Unfortnatly Jimi Hendrix got caught up in a bad crowd who only wanted 2 take advantage of his gift. So when the bad things started 2 happen the music got lost in the process. I believe the reason why Jimi Hendrix life was cut so short was because he didn't have nobody 2 love him for who he truly was nor did he have anyone 2 care 4 him. People only wanted 2 take part in his life because of his Fame and money. Jimi Hendrix was a gentle soul but he also was a tourmented soul that couldn't get away from his demons, such drug addictions and this goes right back 2 point in which I was trying 2 make He never really had no one 2 show him they really cared. I believe 2 this day if someone came along in Jimi's life who gave him this love, he would still be here making great music 2day, however. He would've been appreciated as the music genisus he is, nor would he have been recognize 4 the changes he made in rock n roll.
Jimi Hendrix was a gentle soul, who understood the true meaning of music. This is the reason why it's important that his legacy lives on til the ends of times .

There are others who share this theory too.

Jimi Hendrix was a gentle soul but he also was a tourmented soul that couldn't get away from his demons, such drug addictions and this goes right back 2 point in which I was trying 2 make He never really had no one 2 show him they really cared.

According to those who knew him, those who worked with him, those who toured with him, those who lived with him; Hendrix was not an addict.

For those ready to jump in and say he took this and that, to that I say; nobody ever said Hendrix was 100% clean.
Certainly not those who I mentioned above.
Someone who has experimented with drugs is not automatically an "addict."
This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes.
