Everything we do in life is meant to be in pursuit of hapiness. Right? Thanks you agree with me! But sometimes i'm forced to think that the human heart is also designed to look for ways to feel sad in a while probably to tip the scales off. These two conflicts facts are evident in the life of this late renown artist. For those who don't know her, here is a succinct background of this diva. WHITNEY CAUSED HER OWN DEATH!!! I've tried to wrestle with this fact in vain in the past few days backed by all brouhaha on our screens and newspapers and so, i've decided to do what i do when something is bogging the bejesus out of me: WRITE!! Writing to me brings a sense of relief to me. What do i mean by this conspiracy that WHITNEY KILLED HERSELF?? However in 2010 after several stints in rehab, Houston declared herself drug-free in an interview with Oprah Winfrey and she appeared to be making comeback not knowing this feigned comeback would last only two years. This leaves one wondering whether the comeback was just a matter of complacency. The controversial pictures on several websites on the internet leaves one doubtful that this diva was a drug - free 'saint'. I am not only frustrated and heartbroken by her death, but also especially by how she feigned throughout the so-called comeback period. Though in real sense she was struggling with drugs, she feigned asceticism just to convince us that she was drug free. What bother me most is that we have failed to learn from history. We should have learned from Michael Jackson struggle with Propofol. We should have learned from Demi Moore struggle with Xanax. We should have learned from John Belushi addiction to Cocaine & heroin. We could have learned from Marilyn Monroe addiction to barbiturate. We could have learned from Bridgette Anderson addiction to alcohol. Not to mention the likes of River Phoenix, Ken caminiti,Hilel Slovak,Anna Nicole Smith, Jim Morrison, Dorothy dandridge, Bruce Lee, Elvis Presley, Keith Moon, Abbie Hoffman, Steve Clark, Rob Pilatus, Chris Penn, Gerald Levert, Pimp C and Heath Ledger. Whitney should have admitted plaily that she was still struggling with drugs and i'm sure her mentors would have helped her to fully recover. What bothers me even more is that Whitney's daughter Christina has been exposed to every type of dysfunctional behaviour known to mankind. She saw her parents fight, she saw her parents slap each other, she saw her parents finally split, she went to parties meant for only over 18's, she saw her mother indulge into drugs and finally she saw her mother die of the drugs. Aaagggrhhhh!!! In the face of this traumatizing experience, it pains me to imagine that we might see worse and more heartbreaking experiences in the future. This is because history and future tends to be close brothers especially if we fail to learn from the former.
With all these facts, this artist was obviously designed to soar higher and higher in the sky of success in the music industry but at some stage, it seems her wings shrunk and all over a sudden, she fell back to ground zero with a great thud.
