Marilyn Monroe was a marvel
Although she had many failed marriages, every single one of her husbands continued to love her. One that stands out the most is Joe DiMaggio. "Marilyn married her second husband, baseball star Joe DiMaggio, in January 1954. She asked Joe to promise to leave flowers on her grave every week if she died before him. He later kept his promise." He was also responsible for planning her funeral. He reportedly only let close friends and family members into the service because he believed everyone else contributed to her alleged suicide. "Joe DiMaggio's last words were "I'll finally get to see Marilyn". Obviously many loved her but she never felt loved. It might have been from her traumatizing childhood and many mental illness issues.
One very important element anout her that many people seem to overlook is her intellicence. "The blonde bombshell wasn't just a pretty face. She owned 200 books, including Tolstoy and Whitman, listened to Beethoven and took a course in literature at UCLA."She was not only book smart, but she was extremely intelligent when it came to life. She has many famous life quotes that are still widely used today. She was basically forced to learn about life as a child. She never had the chance to live like the other children, also something she had always wanted but never got.

Marilyn was always a sweet, kind-hearted woman. "According to her first husband, James Dougherty, she had a great love for animals. Once, she tried to bring a cow inside their home to get it out of the rain." Whether it was a cow or a human being, she cared day in and day out for the things around her.There is no doubt that millions of friends and fans loved Marilyn Monroe. Not only did men and women fall for her beauty, but also for her over all being. They way she talked, walked, smelt, and everything in between made people automatically fall head over heals for her. She was a gorgeous woman but also had the ability to make anyone around her laugh even if she was feeling down as well. "The beauty was well-known for her ability to get a laugh. Actor and musician Jack Lemmon said: "She was a wonderful comedienne and she had a charisma like no one before or since." She enjoyed seeing people smile and be happy because she really did care. Her heart was big and despite her troubled childhood and the countess times she had been rejected and mistreated, she continued to give to others, That was all she really wanted, she wanted to feel loved. She thought that if she continued to give and give, she would eventually get something back in return. Unfortunately to her, that never happened. She was a unique individual that possessed the qualities that seemed surreal at the time.
