“However, today when I create my music, I feel like an instrument of nature. I wonder what delight nature must feel when we open our hearts and express our God-given talents.
The sound of approval rolls across the universe and the whole world abounds in magic.
Wonder fills our hearts, for we have glimpsed, for an instant, the playfulness of life and that’s why I love children and learn so much from being around them.
I realize that many of our world’s problems today from the inner city crime to large scale wars and terrorism and our overcrowded prisons are a result of the fact that children have had their childhoods stolen from them.
The magic, the wonder, the mystery and the innocence of a child’s heart are the seeds of creativity that will heal the world.
I really believe that.
What we need to learn from children isn’t childish. Being with them connects us to the deeper wisdom of life, which is everpresent and only asks to be lived.
They know the way to solutions that lie waiting to be recognized within our own hearts.”
Michael’s Grammy Legend Award speech, 35th Annual Grammy Awards, 1993
“The magic, the wonder, the mystery and the innocence of a child’s heart are the seeds of creativity that will heal the world.”
This is what played around in my head every day i was blessed to work on this painting. So i think that’s Michael’s Message of Love that has to go with it.
