My Thoughts on Whitney Houston and her early Death

In the past few days a lot of speculations have come my way. Some suggest it was suicide.
Others murder. The main reason being is the timing of her death, right before the Grammys.

Whitney has accomplished more than most by the time she was 22 and a few years later a major
self inflicted decline of her career would take place.
In those years she wasn’t forgotten. It was as if a beautiful life was put on hold and
most people expected her to return in full force.
Then a couple of years back, she would once again publish an album that debut at number 1
of the Billboard charts which was rare for a female artist in her 40s who hasn’t been in the spotlight
for 12 years.

Another loss would be that the plan to film Waiting to Exhale II has been derailed.

Her death came as a completely unexpected surprise to me. She left Bobby Brown finally, but
it could have also left her with an emptiness that she didn’t know how to fill.

Is there a reason for her death?

Well, I truly believe that everything happens for the best whether or not we can see it so here
might be what good could have come out of this:

Whitney seemed tired and worn out and the picture of the night before of her coming out of a
nightclub was one of the worst ever published.

It could have been that she gave up fighting and let go. One of her last performances was “Jesus Loves Me”
and it could be that she let go of her demons and stopped fighting but had no more fight left in her.

Whitney didn’t have to do anything to top her career.
And maybe she was taken away to keep her from watching her own life go down even further.

Overall I believe that all of it happened for a reason.

And whatever reason there might be, in the grand scheme of things, we should celebrate her life rather
than question why she died so young.
