God is often referred to as "The Creator" and the West has often portrayed God as being loving and benevolent. Wishing to create man in his own image and see him animated from the clay, or wood in this case. Geppetto is the Judeo-Christian God in this story. He wishes to see that his creation be granted a life of it's own. His wish is that his marionette, Pinocchio was a real boy. Creations of wonder, but still mechanical constructions bound to the passing of time and untethered to a consciousness.

Around the shop is a collection of beautifully constructed clocks. The woodworker is shown to be kind and affable, adoring his kitten and goldfish Figaro and Cleo. Jiminy Cricket finds shelter in the home of a woodworker named Geppetto. Once you find the meaning of your life and then aim your intention at the star, thus aligning yourself to that ultimate meaning then you can have it all. If you go through life believing that life is ultimately meaningless, then you're out of the running to achieve anything of significance in your life. If it seems too fanciful to be believed, imagine that perhaps the wisher of this dream must adopt the knowledge, discipline and follow-through to make this dream a reality. You must be willing to become the type of person who is worthy of this goal. The goal has to be authentic ( if your heart is in your dream) and greater than the mundane ( no request is too extreme). When you set your eyes above the horizon into the transcendent and set a great worthy goal, it can be attained. The song implies that we all have limitless potential. The songs message is that anyone, no matter their socio-economic status, gender, or initial position in life can achieve anything. When you wish upon a star your dreams come true Like a bolt out of the blue, fate steps in and sees you through The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing Less discernibly, a choir of angelic voices sing the following:įate is kind, she brings to those who love If your heart is in your dream, no request is too extreme When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you areĪnything your heart desires will come to you As the opening credits roll the song " When You Wish Upon A Star" plays.
