there is no success in wishing death

if you want to see evil in the world just take a look around you its not so hard to spot

that is what i realized as i came across a news article written about lindsay lohan last night.
my heart sank in sadness for her as i read the headline that read:

"To Be Successful Again, Lindsay Lohan Must Die"

it is an excerpt from a new book by a former new york daily news gossip reporter named jo piazza, and it suggests this:

At this point yet another glimpse at her prematurely aging breasts paying homage to Marilyn Monroe will not reinvigorate Lindsay's sagging brand and career. The only thing that will save brand Lohan from total Kristy McNichol-dom is if she truly channels Monroe and actually leaves us for good.



the article completely stunned me as i thought to myself
"how could someones lips begin to speak such evil, horrid words toward someone?"
im not a fan of lindsay lohan by no means because i have never thought she was a very good actress
in my opinion

but she is a person
she is more than a "brand"
she has her faults
but look around
there are boocoodles of people who are in her same shoes
everyday spending days, months and years in jail
but do they deserve to be wished death?
no, no one deserves that
these people need help instead
yes many people will say she brought it upon herself
sure she did
but everyone deserves a helping hand

and to mr. piazza:
what makes your life so great that you believe you have the right to say such words?
can't you see above your hollywood piggy bank that this "brand" is more than a headline
she is apart of someone's family
she is someone's daughter
she has a life beneath the star-dom world built on total crap
and it may be true that the world turns their disgrace toward a person of fame to sympathy
after they leave this world
but it shouldn't be like that
we should feel sympathy toward them before they are gone
we may even save their life don't you see?

but the bad thing is
good things don't sell in today's magazines
even if lohan did turn her life around for the better
people want to see others lives go to ruin
i guess because it makes their life seem not so bad
and its a sad thing, but it's true

what is wrong with a woman like her turning her life around for the good?
what if people lifted her up instead of bringing her further down?
what is wrong with a woman like her growing up and getting married
having a family
raising children and loving a man
doing some laundry and dishes
making a good meal and having a good man hug her and tell her
he loves her everyday
what is wrong with her having a real life like billions of others in the world?

i believe she deserves every bit of it
and she can do it if people like piazza would write articles inspiring hope instead of hate towards her

I agree... seems like a lot of people, reporters especially, throw their morals out the window just to earn a buck. It's sad, but that's how a lot of the world runs today, by indecent people. The world would be a much better place if more people like you were running the show! ;)
