Whitney Houston...... Legend, Mother, Icon

.
  
 On Saturday night while we all were going about out daily activities we came across some breaking news flash across our TV screens. The great Whitney Houston has died at the age 48. At first we believe that this was a bad, sick joke and we didn't want to believe it. Unfortunately we were wrong sources came in and said that this sick bad joke was very true. Sources told us that Whitney Houston was found in her hotel room in the bathtub; Ms. Houston was getting ready to attend the incredible but talented Clive Davis Grammy party that he has every year. This party is always the talk among music industry, if you wasn’t invited then you probably wasn't the "it" factory.

With some many stories racing across the internet and our local TV stations we will not really know what killed the icon, but we do know is that she will be truly missed by her family, friends and fans. When the commentaries asked fans and artists what they remembered about Ms. Houston I believe that they were astonished that they remembered the positive about her and not the negative. Even through all of Whitney's trails and many tribulations she will always be remembered for her style, charm, beautiful big smile and most importantly her wonderful instrument which was her voice.

Many fans like myself are so sadden by her death because we feel like we lost a sister. Many of our parents grew up on many of Whitney's classics and to be honest some of us probably were made off one of those classics. It troubles me when I hear people say that it wasn't a surprise that she died they seen it coming cause she was already on drugs. I strongly believe that a person can change and when they do people still want to seek for the negative instead of letting the positive outshine.

Sometimes it can be a real big struggle when you have a angel sitting on one side of your shoulder and then you have devil sitting on the other. It is like the world and your conscious wants you to go with the devil just so they can have something to report.  They are always willing to see you fail. But it is up to you to be strong and have the courage to defeat the devil and your conscious.  Just follow that angel on the other shoulder and your heart.

What really was Whitney's Houston Addiction? Was it the drugs? Was it that little devil sitting on her shoulder? Did the Fame become too much?

Of course outsiders and the media may have the answers to these questions but the only person who truly knows , would be the late Whitney Houston and God. Let us just remember that she was a Mother and that she is Human and yes she can make mistakes throughout her life but change is always a good thing.

So as we remember Whitney Houston let her positive outshine her negative. Let us remember that she was truly a Icon, Mother and a Legend with a voice that would and still brings chills to our bodies.
