oooweee... when it rains it pours. Life has been seriously challenging for me the last couple of months, and if you read my previous posts from the last year not an not so easy last couple of years. But I can honestly say that mercy is defintely graced me. I have had more closed doors, and limitless holds on hope that I can count. So from here, me getting pass each rollercoaster and dissspointment is writing.

Yesterday I hear the news that Whitney Houston died, and all the media can do is ask why? how? who found her? was it drugs? did she overdose? did someone killed her? And all I can think about; was her last minutes lonely or dreadful. Her daughter, and her family. Yes it is important on how she died but the given fact is; she's no longer here, and I cried for her. I didn't know her, nor ever met her, or seen her in concert. But you know how you can look in someone's eyes and learn them. You see thier soul, thier emotions, and what they're feeling. With that; I feel like I knew her. And just two days ago I recieved my Feb subscription of Essence Magazine on my nook. She was featured in the, headlines: "Whitney: In The Spotlight Again" she is in a a new movie coming out this summer for the remake of the movie "Sparkle" with Jordin Sparks. I was so happy for her because she looked so good and healthy. I immediately showed the pictures to my colleagues who was also happy to see her in such a beautiful light. It saddens me, but I only want to focus on her most successful past accomplishments and those that were to come. She's been through alot and she was well aware of it all, and headed toward making good for herself, and reclaiming her greatness.

For you I dedicate this post Whitney.
