It was reported that Whitney Houston, one of the most celebrated of female singers of all time was found dead (we were told due to drug abuse) in a hotel room in Los Angeles last Saturday. She was just 48.
What a waste. Another star just faded away! Question I want to ask is could it have been avoided?
So I guess, that's where most of the "coke" went. It's hard to believe, but seems to me the demand of it perpetuates its supply (?)
It has been said, most if not all ‘celebs’ can't handle fame and the trappings which come with it. To name a few, Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson and now Whitney Houston; they all shared the same fate!
Fame is a curse. The famous and the successful, most of them, they all wear a mask. All of their self-esteem is actually phony. They may have it all but they just didn't know how to live happy and to grow old gracefully.
Reminds me of this infamous quote which I think is apt: Winston Churchill once said, quoting Napoleon: "I cannot live without champagne. In victory, I deserve it, in defeat, I need it." So were those "stars.” But blessed are the exceptions.
Isn’t it true, drugs do not solve problems, they only aggravate them? Indeed, abstinence is a discipline we must learn if we are to stay healthy and alive.
A stark reminder: Say NO to drugs, it ain’t worth it!
Life is not easy but aren't we glad that though we don't have it all, every morning we have is a new beginning, a new chance for us to rewrite the story of our life! The advice is: Write it well, folks.
