Hello, I got busy yesterday so I had to leave mid visit here.
Ok that makes total sense! I took it wrong. I thought he meant that he is with God but is far away from God. You've changed my perspective.
Thank you Poe. wow I like it even more now.
That's what I thought before about maybe he's talking about a pure, God blessed love. About the dreams....I really have no idea. I just know years ago I was curious as to whether that was something that had been studied or known to happen and came across a study done. It was interesting. They were dreams shared by people who knew each other. There was no way to test the possibility of dreams shared by those who had never met. I've always been fascinated by dreams, and since watching some movie on dreams when I was a child, I found it even more fascinating. I wish I could remember the name of the movie but it was about this group of test subjects who were induced into a shared dream and one guy was evil and would kill others in their dreams and then because they died in the dream, they were dead in real life (I think... hard to remember. I think I was probably 5 or so) but since then I would try to have dreams that were shared by someone else and I tried controlling my dreams to an extent as well. So I find dreams very interesting, whether my own or someone elses.
Sure I've fallen or I'd not be here..lol. Fallen for him and his fans.. something about this MJ world is alluring..well..him, the people attracted to him, the music and creativity, the romance like in this thread. It is all really special and he is very special too, and so are so many of the people I have met..special to me. So yes, I am not immune to the charm and magic.
lol
you tease you
See, I even this. I forgot to add some of the things that have that allure and are a part of it... humour and mystery too, and so much else!
I don't think that he or Poe is saying that it is about the children, but was inspired by the children. As someone else said, he sees God in the face of children and that pure innocent joy. When you see the creation of the creator, and it just hits you, it can be so powerful, and I suppose that's how the inspiration came about for this song. He may not have even fully remembered what actually happened just prior to his writing this, or maybe both things did and he was recalling back to how he felt watching the children playing and experiencing that good innocent fun that he could experience vicariously by watching them. It makes sense that it is about God and inspired by God through the moment of seeing His goodness in that moment through those children.
Yes, like this.
Oh! you were the one who said it about seeing God in the face of children. Yes I agree. I see the light! lol. I understand now and it makes sense. I used to think I was wrong to think it was about God, because of those two things I mentioned, but I just needed to change my perspective and see the other meaning. LOL MJ loves to do that hey? Say or write things that can be taken more than one way. He doesn't even bother to elaborate to clarify. Just lets us see it how we see it. Probably because depending on how you see something, it says something about the viewer. Well I can't speculate his reasoning for doing that, but it's something I've noticed about him.
