This day, 7 years ago, one of my best friends, Emily gave me a Valentine Day card. (The card is posted on FB wall if you'd like to see it) I wish I was sharing this card with Emily, laughing about old times and the cards we both exchanged but Emily passed away right before Christmas, so this card is a reminder to me to love people every day not just on Valentines Day, you never know when you last day is, God never promised us tomorrow.
I love you Sunshine, thanks for shining down so brightly on all of us today!

My Whitney Rant.
Whitney Houston pasted away recently, and there has been a lot of media coverage over her and her life. Some media and been good and some of it has been bad which is typical, but it got me to thinking. Yes, Whitney Houston did drugs, that was quite obvious, and it's more than likely that is what took her life, but why do we continually dwell upon that? She is gone now, why are we just now so concerned about her drug use now? Before it was just a story to fill a 20/20 or 60 minutes or a Dateline time slot. Now we ask why someone didn't care enough to get her help. I find that ironic. We all knew before now, some of the headlines were that people were 'shocked but not surprised' how sad. Nonetheless, she is gone now and I hope that her life can be used as an example of how drugs do not help fix any of the situation that you are facing, and often just don't change how you look but how you act as well. So let's not slam her name any more let's remember her voice, and pray for her family, and especially her daughter. As they have lost someone they love, let's respect them during this time.
