Dream Thought #133: You can't fool yourself

 

"You can fool people. You can fool anybody anytime of the day, but you can't fool yourself. At night, when you go home, you've got to be straight up with you.' - Whitney Houston

If you Say My Eyes are Beautiful by Whitney Houston and Jermaine Jackson

Happy Saturday. This is officially the last Saturday of Summer. To end my summer love
songs on Saturday is this beautiful song. I love how songs can bring you back to a time
in your life with such clarity. It's a beautiful song. I know this song had been a wedding
song for so many. Enjoy.

Wordless Wednesday: Whitney

Whitney

I came on Twitter last night and saw the trend
saying Whitney had died. I thought it was another
death hoax. When I went on google to see it was
true..my heart felt sick.

Did I know Whitney Houston, personally? No, she felt
like part of my extended famous family. I was 15,
when Whitney burst on the screen. Since then, she
has been a constant presence in music and movies for
me. My mom and I even went to see her in Radio City
Music Hall many year ago.

How she died is still unclear. The past years of
her life mired with drama and drugs. I like to
believe that she was turning things around and
allowing herself to soar again. Especially with
her starring in the remake of the movie: Sparkle.
Her fans around the world including myself mourn her
passing. My heart goes out especially to her family.
They didn't lose an icon, they lost their beloved one.

Everyone has there favorite Whitney songs
and movies, here are mine.
