Lost

February is Black History Month and this is the time when we get to celebrate the things our ancestors did for us to have a better future (although I think that we should be doing this every time ) for example Rosa Parks refusing to give up her seat or even Martin Luther King Jr and his famous  ' I have a Dream Speech'.  However i see people on Twitter saying that this has been the worst history black month due to the 'suicide' of the 'KING' Don Conerlious and also the death of  'THE VOICE'  Whitney Houston.

Although we have lost two of the most influential people in the entertainment industry, i believe that there is a lesson to it; That we must love people whilst they are still alive. Also, I believe that we must be able to give someone a shoulder to lean on, make them believe that they have someone they can talk to as you might save a life, reduce alienation and possibly prevent suicide. I think that most people might commit suicide because they do not have anyone to talk to because they feel like they are abandoned but i feel that if people just let their loved ones know that they are not alone then this might help them get out of the dark place they might be in. 


One of the biggest battles that Whitney Houston had was a drug addiction. Lets not try and deny that she did not do them because she did, and the thing that really hurts and  shocks me is when people shun you out to not talk about when we need to address such as drug problems . If people are not made aware of the problems in our society how then do we fight them?
