Why am I a huge Mariah Fan? It all started in 1990 when Mariah dropped her first
single...her voice was angelic...it ran shivers up my
spine! I knew this singer was going to be around for
awhile! What I didn't know was that, this woman was
going to be my inspiration and one who would get me
through some of the most difficult times in my life.
Knowing that everyone experiences some tough trials in
a lifetime, I felt as if there was nowhere else to
turn..I often times felt alone, or helpless...But, I
did have something...I had music. Mariah's music.
"Butterfly" is the album that made me cry, made me
laugh, made me stronger...helped me get through. And,
even to this day...truthfully, I can stand tall and
make it through anything...with a boombox and Mariah's
CD's.
My husband got deployed and is going to be in Iraq for
a year. So, right now, I am going through one of the
toughest battles of my life...missing the love of my
life. Mariah's music is there to make me smile, to
make me feel that power that music has..to soothe my
lonely heart.
And lastly, my 3 year old lamb-in-training is already
a fan of Mariah. We are constantly jamming out to
Mariah's tunes and singing her favorite song,
"Butterfly". I'll ask her to run and get the Butterfly
CD and she comes back with it and says..."Mommy, that
is Ma-rye-ahhh. She is pretty." And, I tell her,
"Yes, she is pretty, but you know what? She is an
amazing singer...and a beautiful person, inside and
out."
Thanks Mariah for keeping it real and for not only
touching my heart, but touching so many others out
there. You are truly an angel! You will never ever
understand what you truly mean to so many people. God
Bless! xoxoxoxo
