My Opinion On Anna Nicole Smith
I wasn't going to say anything about her on my blog because I didn't want to get any slack about the way I feel. But I have to and this is me now letting it out not keeping it inside. Yesterday when I was out with my mom. Dad called to tell my mom stuff. But half way through their conversation I hear my mom say " No you got to be kidding! We knew it was going to happened. Oh Well"
Then she got off the phone to inform me that dad saw on the new Anna Nicole Smith died. Then she told me that her and my father couldn't stand her that the things she saw of her on TV really made her sick blah blah blah. First I was taken aback that Anna was dead. But I was shocked at my mother opinion my mom was pretty harsh.
I asked my mom how did she know so much about her. Her comment " I seen her acting like a fool on TV and I read about her. I said if this woman bothered you so much why did you watch her or read about her?? Funny she really didn't have much of an answer. So I told her you didn't really not like her. It amused you to watch her making an ass of herself. To me it made the people watching or reading feel better about themselves to watch a woman destroy her rep so others could look good and feel better about themselves. I told her my heart went out to her. She didn't have the best life and she made the choices many wrong but she made them so she could get through this life on her own term. Not on the terms of what other thought she should take. I have made many mistakes in my life and I'm sure I will make many more but I try to keep them at a minimum because I don't want my family to feel embarrassed or shame. But why do I allow people to control the way I feel or think. But I do like many of us that want to keep peace in our lives. But you know what in the last 2 years I have said somethings I regret later or reacted to things very strongly. But I'm saying what is on my mind and to me this is a good thing. I was a yes woman for way to long. It has cause some people to leave my life but I know it was for the better. Because why should I put up with others taking advantage of me. No more I feel I'm worth more than that. To me if people can't take what I have to about the way I feel to bad. I don't deserve to take it anymore. I'm tired of feeling violated and used! Slowly each day I become stronger! I may get knocked down but I try to dust myself off and start over again!
Anyways this is my opinion her antics of being stone or drunk on TV or elsewhere was not to classy yes I know that. Her marrying a man in his 90 yeah it was a shocker but not something that was to shocking. Women do it everyday it just not spoken about.
I think deep down inside of me if I had the confidence ect when I was a struggling single mother and a 90 year old man came along and offered me the world and money. I would of truly thought about it and maybe took the chance for a better life for my daughter and I. Really think about ladies we have say or thought about this and said I wish I could find myself a sugar daddy to take care of me. I know I have!! lol But I'm not secure enough with myself to even attempt it but I say you go girl if someone does! Life is way to short to not take that chance. I gave her a high five for doing it in my mind because if I said it around other people they just start a fight and I didn't have the backbone to argue but now I do!! Another thing that gets to me is her son died after giving birth to a second baby 20 years after her first baby. The media made it a sham. The woman was grieving leave her the hell alone. I know, god forbid if this ever happened to me I'd be stone for as long as it take just to ease the pain of losing my child. I maybe be stone all my life but at least I got through!!
I know your thinking she in the spot light she put herself there. But hey there is a time and a place for this. And losing a child isn't the time to push someone over the edge. My heart goes out to her 5 month old baby. Her baby won't know the woman who was larger than life. She will only hear the bad and this is so sad. The pictures that they showed after she gave birth. You can tell she was truly happy. I hope her daughter gets to see them. Anna was a woman who was got lost in this world. I know she is finally happy. She with her son who she needs now. She made a big impact on this world. Bad or good she will not be forgotten. Well not in my world anyways. Here's a quote that someone said yesterday when they found out she left this world. This sums it up totally!
Janice Min of US Weekly:
"She fought against so many obstacles — poverty. Teen pregnancy.
A bad home life." And of course, ridicule.
"But she persisted, where others would have shrunk
away out of humiliation and shame."
It might have made her look pathetic.
But it also made it exceedingly hard to look away.

She came up with two things: Dysfunction. And beauty.
"No question, she was beautiful," said Behar, of ABC's "The View." "We know people like to watch dysfunction. But beauty gives you something extra to look at. Dysfunction and beauty: Now that's something to watch."
Thanks for listening. It feels wonderful to finally say the way I feel about something others don't agree with. I don't have to say things to make everyone happy but me !
Laters much luv and hugs

I think I am the only person who does not know who this Anna is...
Well I'm sure with all the stupid news coverage on these days you'll find out what she was! lol And you'll get sick of it like I am
I think that anyone who dies regardless of who you are its truly a "Tragic" thing!
However...She wasn't anyone "Special." She didn't help within her community so to speak...I haven't heard anything about whether or not she "Donated" money to charity...
I find it sad that when the "Ordinary" people pass...they are left unoticed..."Ordinary" people volunteer within their community all the time.
I was a Statistic of "Teenage Pregnancy"...I was a Statistic of "Domestic Violence"...I left my EX with my THREE kids and ONLY the clothes on our backs...
I struggled supporting my kids on a Waitress Income...and I put myself through College as a Mother..
I helped out at my local Nursing home and Worked for my Local Humane Society!
I could go on and on, but my point is...When I die, It will go unoticed! Because the world is Truly "Celebrity Fixated."
But You are RIGHT...when I was a single mom and IF some Billionaire looked at me...I would have jumped his bones...to get out of waitressing and off of welfare:)
I truly hear you dream writer. I was there also but I had one child. Sadly to say I still have the physical and mental scares to prove it!
But it made me a much better person today. I get really upset thinking why the hell did I have to go through that and then my daughter comes up to me the next day and tells me I'm her hero and she loves me for everything I've done for her. And I realize it was all worth it!
You know what hun you won't go unnoticed! If I'm still alive I won't let that happened. By stopping by my blog to comment it means so much to me. You've made a difference in my life. Thank you ! You've made a friend if you like one!!
You are so sweet! But in all honesty, I was just making a point :)
I am truly fine and I agree... for me, too it made me who I am today and very strong, I guess!!
My kids say the same thing about me...they are so impressed with how I left with three kids and put their needs first!!
Good for you, too that you got out :)
I liked Anna. She always made me laugh. She died from a broken heart and after my daughter died I understand this. I came close to falling off that cliff. The loss of a child is with you every single day.
