Prince as Maguyver?

Do you ever feel that a certain song or lyric would be perfect to hear at an exact time, or that a song or two personally fixed as a 'love mechanic would' a relationship or an argument or has Prince's music ever saved you from a bad situation.... I guess this thread is about matching moments, times, memories, or even make up situations where Prince could save the day with his music biggrin

Like the gentle purr of the engine when you have lubricated the parts and your love spanner is in full effect?

Never heard of Maguyver (how does that even look right?), but I do remember MacGyver on television.

Right after I posted this thread I heard Prince playing at the wine bar while I ate Breakfast and I asked the waiter who's the Dj in here, cause it was quite obvious they switched the music ; he replied Prince is ....I just laughed and thought how Prince had just Maguyvered (sp?) my meal, he swung in on a tarzan rope and dangled his musical talent it seasoned my dining experience... He peppered and salted my palate.... I tried to focus on my book but I couldn't cool

I have an interesting tale 2 share. I was going back and forth 2 Vegas for a while and was dating this guy for about 2 years. I decided 2 move there because I wanted 2 further our relationship. I was new 2 love and I liked him so much and was considering marriage with him. After I relocated 2 be with him things started 2 seem fishy. I was really struggling in Vegas and I was starting 2 regret my decision b/c I didn't feel like we were truly on the same page. Something in my heart was telling me it wasn't right and it wasn't what I thought it was. So I asked the creator 2 show me a sign if he was the one and I prayed for the truth of what I was feeling 2 be shown. We were at the Hard Rock Hotel, looking around a shop. We stopped 2 have an intimate moment sharing some words and he gave me a few lines that did not resonate with my heart as truth. I felt like I was being played. So I turned and looked away in worry and on the wall in front of me was a memorabilia plaque of Prince. I thought 2 myself instantly of the song Future Baby Mama, and of the line "To build a house together the thing that matters more is under the floor to build a strong foundation that lasts forever more". I realized in that moment that we didn't have the same spiritual beliefs and foundation 2 build from so we would never be able 2 share a deep spiritual understanding and connection which is what I knew in that moment was the true essence of a healthy and magical relationship is about. It is what my heart truly seeks. So we continue 2 walk around talking we stopped again when we unexpectedly ran into some of his "friends". They began conversing about the evening and a "party" they invited us 2. I realized wait a min. these are some of the people he plays with when I'm not around hold on, after listening 2 the energies that were going 2 be there *which I had no desire to be around* I turned to walk away to reflect on how and why he would be involved in a friendship with those people unless he 2 were indulging in those types of frequencies that I was unaware of. So as I am turning 2 shield my pain I see a case in front of me a few feet away and there is one of Prince's jackets from Purple Rain and again instantly I heard the song Marrying Kind and realized that the kind of man I want 2 cherish honors my safety and soul and wouldn’t even think about bringing his women *his queen* 2 a party that has the kind of energy that was going 2 be showcased as a good time. So I ended up biting me lip and saying ok, I'm gonna go on this ride in the elevator and observe for a few moments just how he's gonna react 2 this scene 2 know the truth behind his picture he's painted 2 me of himself. Needless to say I was completely right and I bailed while he was in the bathroom indulging in his "Pop Life" Fantasy which was the theme of everyone at the party but me. When I walked out of the hotel there was a caption above the door of "You don't have 2 be rich 2 be my girl you don't have 2 be cool 2 rule my world" as I was crying I realized wow I get it *I had given up so much including $ and my place in Fl because I was blinded by what I thought was love, and a man I wish for would never want me or let me sacrifice my life 2 be with him, he would support me instead as I would him. He just wants my extra time and my kiss, the things that were taken advantage of made me realize just how sacred they truly are. And I thank Prince for who he his and what he cherishes because it has truly helped me many times other than this

I understand your story and it is on topic.

I've often thought, Prince is a vessel and in his songs there are messeges that touch each one of us in different ways given the space and time of the present.
