Is it just me or does michael look as if hes been caught doing something he shouldnt have lol
~ To give an example of perhaps what this concept is referring, the trailer of the film Ape was so blessed to be apart of recently has something like this going on in it. The main character is a teacher, which in itself is an admirable profession, however, this man seems to have a nagging feeling his life is to mean much more. To add to this he "sees"... a what? A vision? An apparition? of a young girl who seems to be calling out to him to come to her country and help her people.
I know a person in my own life who has shared something similar with me. She had a vision like this where an Native American appeared, standing in the same room she was sitting in and praying in. She asked him, "Who are you?" He was dressed like an Indian chief and he told her to help 'his people" and he told her his tribe. Then he was gone. She inquired of the Lord and He said (meaning she was given an impression), "I want you to intercede for these people." Within days she was somewhere and started a conversatiion with a man who was very americanized, dressed like we all do, but he told her he was from Native American descent. She asked him which tribe, and it was the same as the man in her vision. This young man explained to her the great need of his people at their reservation, they were in trouble, and asked her if she could get them help. And so it began, and God had shown her "ahead of time."
Was God's messenger to her a ghost? No. The Lord is very creative in the way He chooses to speak to His Children. And He distributes His gifts as He pleases, and this ability to see "in the spirit" in such a way, is but one of them.
So are you thinking, MP, that maybe Michael had this particular gifting from God?
I was reading the book of Acts last night, and I came across this passage:
Acts 16:9-10 (New Living Translation)
9 That night Paul had a vision: A man from Macedonia in northern Greece was standing there, pleading with him, “Come over to Macedonia and help us!” 10 So we decided to leave for Macedonia at once, having concluded that God was calling us to preach the Good News there.
For some reason I hadn't remembered reading this befrore. It immediately reminded me of what queen g wrote about God giving people visions of other people. Interesting ...
... The funny thing is that when Ananias came, Saul could not confirm it was the man he "saw" in his vision until after his sight was returned, he knew the name as confirmation, but he was not able to see the face at first. He had to -wait- until after the miracle before having the confirmation that God indeed had shown him the face of Ananias beforehand in that vision. How incredible for him when his eyes were opened and he could see, and right there... looking at him... was that face! Interesting that God chose to do it in that way, in that order.
So maybe only MJ was in the know about the LITD girl being the one for him and "she" was clueless all along. Or maybe, (from MJ's perspective, haha) it seemed to take her forever to get with the program! Or, God told them both in some way, around the same time, so they both were always in the know...together
This pic is very cute! I think what really gives it its charm is that the top hat propped on his head is collapsing on one side! Where is he? At the Salvation Army? That hat would definitely be a really good deal! :lol: Thanks for posting it, Shabuya.BTW, I really liked this particular pic. Mind if I use it as my new siggy sometime? Makes me wanna reach out and give him a hug!

Justus said:This song is, indeed, an explanation of sorts. He tells he feels he's seen her face a thousand times, that he's known her for a thousand years. Some things he just wasn't understanding, and the confusion is evident in the song. You see, he is making YOU ALL feel HIS confusion over the matter, bringing YOU there with him in his emotions. There is a realization, omg the one I've been looking for, my TRUE soulmate, was the one who was "there" simply forever, as long as I can remember. And now, I know she is REAL.
But do you think, MP, it is possible that God gave her some kind of a heads up that MJ was the one for "her" through some supernatural communication? A dream from Him (if not a vision) maybe? Do you think "she" saw MJ in person (remember, many songs say "met" like "when I met ya") and God did something that was unusual to get her to know...that HE, God, was in this? Or, again, was it only MJ that as getting all the messages...maybe because, he is the one more gifted by God in that way? Maybe MJ has always been more attuned to God than her. Could be.MP said:I still am unsure if a vision would have been necessary for "her," since he was always all over the place already as it was; I would think seeing a vision of him would be a little redundant or something. To me it also confirms that she is not famous herself, otherwise why would he need a vision; he'd be seein' her all the time. I would think in her case, God would probably have to try something else. I would think it would also be trickier in her case 'cause how would she get her "confirmation" - unless he practically showed up at her door or something.
... and this here:
You quoting that paragraph from my post, MP, caused me to reread it and as I read the bolded section above, something that Justus had posted long ago, regarding the song, This Is It, came suddenly into my mind. Here's what Justus had to say:
... Well, is it that when God opens our understanding, it is as if our eyes have first been closed (due to such things as confusion and lack of clarity) and then He opens our eyes to see the very thing we couldn't. Is that what Justus is describing above as to what might have gone on with MJ about his LITD girl? What might have kept him then from fully "seeing" or "understanding"? Was this part of the delay for them getting together long before that song even came out? We've often asked ourselves in here, what was the hold-up? And what did it finally take for God to finally be able to "open MJ's understanding?" Did that occur not that long before he left us? Was MJ working on that song to communicate some of this in the last few months of his life and that song was never found in "a box" like was stated, but it was very planned by MJ to rework that song and have it ready for the tour? Unusual things for him to want communicated in a song he wishes to perform special for a tour.
Was it that important to him for the LITD girl to understand the "hold-up" had to do with not having his full understanding "opened" by God yet?
But do you think, MP, it is possible that God gave her some kind of a heads up that MJ was the one for "her" through some supernatural communication? A dream from Him (if not a vision) maybe? Do you think "she" saw MJ in person (remember, many songs say "met" like "when I met ya") and God did something that was unusual to get her to know...that HE, God, was in this? Or, again, was it only MJ that as getting all the messages...maybe because, he is the one more gifted by God in that way? Maybe MJ has always been more attuned to God than her. Could be.
... Was something like this going on with MJ? Was there a period where he resisted believing the LITD girl was really "the one" and during that time his eyes were closed and the confusion came in? But during that time maybe God did a work in his heart and brought him to a place to... want to communicate some things to the LITD girl? Was the song This Is It (and the explaining that is going on in it)a gift from God to the LITD girl, so she could understand some things before MJ left for good? Was God considering her?
The timing seems interesting to me.

I'm glad you liked my post, MP, and everytime I see Justus' little "That's a wrap" I want to go "grrrrrrrrrrr!" *pulls out hair* I've never been able to see anything wrappy about it. I think TII is the most confusing song I've ever come across! Pretty, very pretty...but mucho tres confusing!... or as Justus so eloquently put it:
"4 words: 'That's a wrap, everybody!'" :cheeky:
Thank you, Lainy, and I love Kenny Loggins' (and my fav, Michael McDonald's) This Is It. And it has that added advantage of everything.making.sense.to.me in it! :lol:I regret to be out this thread for some days. I really liked everything that I saw here, pics, songs... I can't believe I lost all this.
Queen G, that incredible post! I have nothing to add but I keep watching this good work.
"You think that maybe it's over, only if you want it to be." ( This is It - Kenny Loggins) I loved it.
Well did mj say in the PHM that he liked 2 snoop around the salvation army place! :lol:, i guess that what hes been caught doing hahaha
Hello, Asedora. How ya doin'?Hello ladies! :flowers:
I enjoyed very much reading your incredible posts today. I do not come too often here but I do not mind to read time to time. Queen G , your theory sounds beautiful and I think it does make sense everything what you just said. Michael was a very spiritual person and his lyrics and music were written in Space like he said himself once in his interview. Timing I think is very important if we are talking about some sort of supernatural connection..
I believe that God was taking care of him and his LITD girl ( if she really exists). I just wanted to add that she maybe even was not his fan?Otherwise why he would keep trying to find her so hard for so many years calling her even Invincible? Sometimes the lyrics speaks better than anything else imo. It seems like it was hard for him to find her.... . Just saying… .
Am I correct in thinking the "Rabbi" tapes were recorded fairly close to when Invincible came out? Were they before 2002?
http://www.amazon.com/The-Michael-Jackson-Tapes-ebook/dp/B002Q181ZCIn 2000-2001, Michael Jackson sat down with his close friend and spiritual guide, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach...........
AllForMJ has felt that she observed a change in him in 2002, that led her to believe he had "hope" once again in regards to his LITD girl. So that would mean not too long after these "Rabbi" recordings, something happened to make him think he had a chance once again with the LITD girl. Hmm.
Hello, Asedora. How ya doin'?
Hmm, was she a fan? I think you have a point that MJ through his lyrics could make you think "he" thinks she's not one of his biggest fans. This line from the song, Invincible, could get you there:
But girl you just won't approve of the things that I do When all I do is for you but still you say it ain't cool
I know it's come up in here before that the person MJ was meaning when he replies to Oprah's question back then in '93, "Have you ever been in love?" was the LITD girl. For some reason I never thought he was meaning her. His response, of course, was "Brooke...and another girl."
However, it is my personal opinion when he had that conversation with Rabbi Shmuley about why he pushed himself so much in his career and that it was all about seeking Love...Schumley asked if it was to gain the love and acceptance of his father. Michael answered,
"Yes, my father, and...someone else."
I believe that it makes sense that the someone else that he is referring to here...is the LITD girl.
From his perspective, it seems, he couldn't do "anything" right in her eyes! How he got this impression, or how he learned she wasn't being impressed with him or wasn't approving the very things he hoped would "wow" her...I have no idea. We have nothing to go on.
So either she wasn't ever a fan of his, or, she was for awhile there, at first maybe, and something made him think that all changed.

If so, I wonder what it was? Was it some spiritual/supernatural revelation? Did he have a dream about her? Well, I guess there are lyrics to support he dreamed about her quite a bit (we've mentioned them before in here). But did he have one specific dream from God, or a vision, that renewed his faith that God was going to bring her back into his life afterall?
He certainly tried once again to put "feelers" out in 2003...he released One More Chance.
Did that idea come after MJ had a spiritual experience that had to do with the LITD girl? Did he "see" her in a vision, after not seeing her for years? Was that enough for the old feelings to flood back?
Aww. :wub:
(come to think of it, I wonder what she was wearing in that vision, she must have looked hot!! lol.)

First of all, I strongly agree with AllForMJ that Michael’s demeanor changed around 2002 where he appeared to have this “glow of love”. .
:wild: Great job, Ash! Thanks for finding that info.In 2000-2001, Michael Jackson sat down with his close friend and spiritual guide, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach...........
He was sad about that whole documentary, very true, but it was after that when he seemed to go back to operation-get-that-girl, for in the fall of that year he had already released Number One's which included One More Chance, and he was working on a special music video for that song. And during the filming of THAT is when his turned into a , and operation-get-that-girl seemed to come to a halt.But then that whole bashit started and he was again.
Referring to her as "someone else" might be for no other reason than to keep her privacy, which is, I assume, the same reason he said "another girl" in response to Oprah...to keep that name private as well. Not sure it has to indicate they never actually met....And also, it sounds imo that he did not meet her personally. This is why in Smuley book he calls her “someone else”.
Another possibility is he knew of a guy being in the picture a while back and had no idea if she was still with the guy or not; but just in case she was still, he included the "somebody else" bit. Remember he begins the lines with "if." So he doesn't know for sure. What if around that time she's done with the guy...and talk about timing being important, in 1999, he is now free as well...he just went through his divorce. Maybe she(if there is a "she") was now once again turning her thoughts back towards him, and that is what was causing him to start thinking about her again. Or, like we have been saying, he had a dream or vision about her at that time. Maybe she was having a dream about him, too, at the same time, and so she was finally checking on him again; but he didn't know. He just knew he was feeling a pull towards her again.Asedora said:Plus, timing is very important. He probably felt that at that time ( 1998-1999 I guess when the lyrics was written) she was going through some big changes in her private life and she had “somebody else who buys diamonds and pearls for her” .... Invincible lyrics is full of pain and emotions.... .Just my opinion.
Hi People,
He was sad about that whole documentary, very true, but it was after that when he seemed to go back to operation-get-that-girl, for in the fall of that year he had already released Number One's which included One More Chance, and he was working on a special music video for that song. And during the filming of THAT is when his turned into a , and operation-get-that-girl seemed to come to a halt.]
Yeh wasnt it while shooting the vid for "one more chance" he found out bout the allegations?
[FONT=border=]I do see, also, what Asedora is meaning about the time frame. It seems maybe his online interaction with "her" must not have started until after the One More Chance song came out, if we go by the lyrics which imply he's looking for her and has not found her yet. Remember his answer to Bashir earlier that same year (2003) "I haven't found one yet" when asked if there was someone special in his life. So if he was chattin' up a storm with her in a chatroom in 2002, I think we would be able to say he already had found her. But it doesn't seem he had as of yet. Maybe the chatroom chit-chat and PMs, like you say, started after One More Chance. Maybe that song brought her to the chatroom, or somewhere to try to get close to him][/FONT]
[FONT=border=]Would have been nice to think he found his girl in that chatroom [/FONT]
[FONT=border=]By the way, I really miss Michael. I miss seeing him around. Don't you all? ][/FONT]
yes
[When Bashir questioned him about having someone special we know that he responded in the negative. Well frankly, let’s be honest, it was NOBODY’S business about his love life and what may have been happening between him and his LITD regarding their relationship. Besides, I believe her to be a fan, not a celebrity.

So I am back to thinking what brought about the happier demeaner you and AllForMJ were seeing in 2002, might have been a renewed "hope." And at that time, then, he stepped up the prayers with new vigor, for God to bring them together and give them one more chance. :heart:
By the way, I really miss Michael. I miss seeing him around. Don't you all? [/FONT]
There is a very good possibility that MJ did fall in love with a fan. Don't forget, his former bodyguard said she is not famous. And then there is something that MJ said himself back in mid-2003.
Do you all remember this?
"We promise to make Neverland more accessible to the fans and to work something out so we can stay in touch."
It looks like MJ was trying to make it easier for her to come to him, but Sneddon got in the way of everything. Sneddon caused MJ to instead go through that treadful trial and also destroyed Neverland making it a place that MJ never wanted to return to.
That is an absolutely amazing observation. You catch on to so many things, AllForMJ, that I would think would pass most by. When one thinks about it, this here you mention, could really be key. :clapping:Do you all remember this?
"We promise to make Neverland more accessible to the fans and to work something out so we can stay in touch."

:yes:
