Whitney Houston: A Tribute

By

Whitney’s voice  has been there for so many moments in my life. She will missed but I am certain that her voice will live on. Her power, her sensitivity, and her kindness will echo in my heart and soul forever. 

You Light Up My Life was the first dance at my wedding but hearing her sing The Greatest Love of All  is the song that has played over and over again on my IPod and in my mind.

The power of her voice singing that song, gave me strength when I didn’t have much. Whitney and her voice was truly a gift from God that will live on forever.

In honor of Whitney Houston and her life, I would like to share the words of the song that helped me so much. I suggest that you listen to her sing them if you really want to hear the power that she gave to all who listened and will listen to her sing this song.

 

Greatest Love Of All

I believe the children are our future

Teach them well

And let them lead the way

Show them all the beauty

They possess inside

Give them a sense of pride

To make it easier

Let the children’s laughter

Remind us how we used to be

 

Everybody’s searching for a hero

People need someone to look up to

I never found anyone

Who fulfilled my needs

A lonely place to be

And so I learned to depend on me.

I decided long ago

Never to walk in anyone’s shadow

If I fail, if I succeed

At least I lived as I believe

No matter what they take from me

They can’t take away my dignity

 

Because the greatest love of all

Is happening to me

I found the greatest love of all

Inside of me

The greatest love of all

Is easy to achieve

Learning to love yourself

It is the greatest love of all.

Thank you Whitney, for all that you shared with the world. Rest in peace.
