Death of Donna Summer - a tribute



The death of Donna Summers came as a shock to me. She died of cancer at 62 and it took some time for this news to sink into me. Her music grow up with me especially the song " Hot stuff "....It was very popular during the 80's  and the song top the charts for many weeks.  Her name was on the lips of everyone at that time. Another great song from her was " She work hard for her money ".

Her death was not so long after the death of Whitney Huston. These peoople were so talented and their voice is so beautiful and powerful. A few days ago, I was watching the American Idol contest and the contestants was down to the final three.  Sanche, Phillips and ledet.  Out of the three, Ledet was a black and his voice was excellent and powerful. But, he was voted out. When he was singing, I could link him to the powerful black singers like Diana Ross, Donna Summers and Whitney Huston. Their high pitch and powerful voices brings out the wonderful feelings and meanings in a song.

I believe everyone who come to this world have a role to play. For Donna Summers , she gave us her voice , music and message to her listener. Her destiny was to be a  great singer and make a lot of people happy while enjoying her song. She had done her duty and play her role well.

Everyone of us should search within us and know our role. If we are destined to do great things, please do all out to do just that and if it is our choice to live a plain and simple life , so be it.  Greatness come from our choice and destiny. Nothing can ever change that , not even GOD.

One thing is for sure " How long we live is uncertain but how well we want to live is for sure ",

Namaste.
