    Having just come out of Easter, listening to this song makes me think that these words could very well fit into Christ's experience as he was scarred trying to reach the unreachable star, the impossible dream (to save mankind).
    Who better to sing this emotional song than the most gifted songster, Luther Vandross?
    Rest in peace, dear heart, at the Father's right side.
    We miss you terribly. 😢❤🥀💞💞💞💞❤️

I want you to know that what's broken can be put back together again. Know within your Heart and Soul that our Heavenly father can mend any broken soul or heart. He can pick you up when you've fallen. He is your Possible Dream. There's nothing He cannot do or undo for you Demi. Trust in Him and in ur quiet time, talk to Him with a sincere heart and truly mean it. You'll feel his presence, his love, as He comfort you no matter what you're going
      through in a world of uncertainty unfolds. He's there all the time and your Guardian Angels too. Call upon them for guidance and they will help you. They are assigned to us since we were created. Know that there's nothing Impossible or Unreachable. You are that STAR shining brightly within reach. Look up at the sky and see yourself looking back at you. All things are Possible! Take care and blessings be unto you always and forever. Peace and Love!

      When singers with a voice like this sing, I listen to them. I don't even sing along. My voice would mess up my listening pleasure. To the ignorant, racist, no soul idiots who didn't like it, they don't appreciate good music. No one can duplicate his voice. He doesn't even require music to sound awesome.

    I believe this song touches most of us so deeply, not merely because of the beautiful sounds, but because it echoes and resonates with something in the DNA of our souls. A God-given inner drive and passion to live for something far greater and more wonderful than our mere struggle to survive.
    To rise above the gravity of mere self to live-and even be willing to die-- for a Heavenly cause and to bless and help our struggling and hurting fellow humans in this often dark and destructive world. To live our life - this one life we've been gifted with- to "fight the unbeatable foe" that despite our scars that by God's grace we leave this world a better place, that when we lay our head down at our life's end, our hearts can rest peaceful before our loving Creator, and without regrets, knowing we have risked, invested and yes, dreamed with our gift of Life, the dream of God himself to bring Heaven to earth.
