Nandi Keyi-Ogunlade I feel the same way. Totally amazed that I feel this profound sadness at this.
Melville Foster It's like taking an ax and destroying a Steinway.
Malcolm Arnold some one who has touched the very soul of so many will always be mourned --as it should be Let us celebrate her and the star she reached and not concentrate on her individual human struggles
Richard Ian Jay for potential unrealized.
Malcolm Arnold The old man , " Master have I learnt all my lessons in life ? Master " no my son you are still alive ! she reached her full potential
Maven Huggins was just thinking of that but not in that way. i did actually realize there was no more road for her to reach. i did realize unless she fixed herself even if alive she was not going to create any more muse or anything for that matter, it appears; and then i twas stunning that could be so for a mere 48 year old with such a voice
I see one thing..how us humans tell ourselves stories for what we do not know and cant understand/ but likewise, for trying to posit fill in and complete stories...when they just may be dangling threads
Malcolm Arnold ANd , do we need to know all .Where knowing finishes FAITH starts
Malcolm Arnold and this is our own personal version of FAITH . NOT blind faith following another's words or explanations
Chris Love Because, regardless of color and gender, it grieves us to see someone who had the capacity to shine so brightly, to lighten us with music; someone who had such incredible control of voice, give in to the quicksand of dark people who suck others dry and leave them as a shell of what they once were.
Maven Huggins funny too
I had to stifle the impetus to get up and run...run tell dat...through the streets...like paul riveire..and had to remember where I was and who I am around...
i feel this is kind of a second michael jackson but not really...she was never as deep as he...just another tragic black chick, with talent blown
and some of us are struggling to make it. others blow it . on their backs, through their nose, by their choices. gdmanit
May Whitney Houston's soul rest peacefully. She spread so much light: I remember that early video of her in the white dress singing "The Greatest Love," and it was like she was an angel. Gratitude and praise for her existence, and prayers that she find happiness now. On the human plane a true tragedy, but here's to knowing that God gets the final say...
Maven Huggins
girl, i am just sitting here trying to process...the palpable ache in my soul. you bring the exact words.
then it gets me to thinking how we better know and learn what is pain and what to do /how to treat with it, lest it destroys us, either quickly or slowly...
know how to be at peace at all and everything, in every moment. attached to nothing, either or.
and I have learned from walking on the dark side, having to go there for loved ones, that happiness nor peace is not promised in transition or death. Many who pass on are roaming this earth, tormented, unawares, struggling to get back. I do not make up what I am writing...i lived it with my brother, the one who passed in 1988.>>>
But love you Chantalle for sharing..in any case, no matter what it is, we have no power, and I do as in all things, give it to a higHer Power and the Light...
I think of my brokenheartedness and think of those her crew, friends and family as they circle a shot at the beverly hills hotel, aljazeera

Masego Makepe Yes. She should have left Bobby after 72 days of marriage. He introduced her to all this poison. Her music changed too reflecting the mess she was in. But like most women she stayed too long to her demise, making excuses for herself...I mean, how can it not be rite but be ok. Hell no. Ke tshaba Satan!
Maven Huggins hey. i just happy there are more harsh truth writers than I/ I agree
see I wrote that black folk need an intervention; and perhaps black women in particular. see how common this story. anyway you want to dice or slice: Bad Choices, Bad Associations, A Sliding Slope to Destruction and the JoyTrauma of the Demons all the Happy way ..
how do we make peace with the conditions and experiences about us?

Maven Huggins hm. i like your words...i can stand with them. In them. But i take the lesson, did so a long time ago, actually, to be extra careful with who I associate, assign, take in; to watch my choices, my paths...I was always afraid of catching a demise or destroying another, particularly in the case of having a child. I always thought something was wrong with me to be so careful about unperceived consequences, but I learned early I guess the case of unintended consequences and how immovable and irreversible they can be.
and that has been the path and the lesson here..
"I have deep and tumultuous affairs of my own to scrutinize and understand, my own vices to battle, my own struggle with balancing being eccentric with what is acceptable, normal and even celebrated."
I want to say "Yes" to your quote and continue with..."but let them and nothing destroy me"...I even channeled that last night when I posted about dealing with pain; knowing what to do and how to do that it is not our march to death...but the truth is dear Kahshanna, and I feel I can take the liberty to share my inner journey with you on your posts, I dont even do 'tumultuous", I live in a country where women regularly and daily pay for that mistake at the hands of their men...and not in the indirect way of Whitney either; but at direct violence
Its deep/ but i write cause i love the compassion you share here

From Piers Morgan TV SHow
Singer-songwriter Chaka Khan first recorded the single "I'm Every Woman," a song Houston took to new heights 15 years later. Calling the late star her "little sister," Chaka Khan questions the decision to proceed with Clive Davis' annual pre-Grammy party just hours after Houston's passing:
"I thought that was complete insanity," Chaka Khan tells Morgan. "I don't know what could motivate a person, to have a party, in a building, where the person, whose life he had influenced so enormously, and whose life had been affected by her...I don't understand how that party went on."
