      So why does she work for one of the biggest corrupt networks? Truth is coming how media is all fake and scripted and they are actors reading scripts. Why you think every reporter on every channel says the same thing. Reports the same way.

    Wynonna is correct. As your parents get older their world does become smaller, which means that their children are a bigger part in their life. Call your parents while you can.

He was an avid boxer, and left her, to go Argentina, so, she hated me, for the rest of my life,and I tried to love her, and tried so hard for her to love me in return,......

    The knowledge you acquire as a suicide survivor can help you save lives. I know this to be true after 2 years of grief therapy, reading hundreds of books, establishing a free lending library with over 200 books, five years of efforts that went nowhere, then help from Maize Hirono to establish Kauai's own suicide prevention programs, got newspaper to abolish rule of not printing the word suicide, out of the darkness walks on the cover of newspaper, Assist & Safe Talk training & so much more. My boyfriend died by suicide 20 years ago. Thank you Wynona for spreading awareness and shining a light on darkness. I have experienced people telling me I saved their life. You Wynona are saving lives. Keep talking publicly about suicide. Nothing you say will be wrong. It is all 100% right. Trust your heart. God bless you.🙏❤️

    I actually came across Naomi's book about overcoming depression about a month before she died. And it was a wonderful book about how she overcame it all with family support and different therapist and treatments some worked and others not so much, but then how she died was so like she described in the book it was shock to me so how could I get so much relief from a book when she ended up finding the gun that she tried before to use and end it - really hurt because all her knowledge and research of how to overcome it was uplifting and then a month later the news that she ended it before her hall of fame celebration is was so hard. I needed the hope from her words in the book but then a month later she took her life - and so then I was like what do I do with that - it is really hard to understand, but then I watched the CMT Love Can Build a Bridge and some interviews and the Judds concerts and cried a lot and I felt the loss of the people she left behind to make you understand that if you feel bad you have to keep on for them - even when it is hard for yourself. I hope I can continue to feel that way - but I am sure Naomi kept trying to keep going for everyone else too. Sometimes it is so hard to keep suffering but you have to try for your kids. I haven't gotten past the I can't leave my kid behind not matter how hopeless or bad I feel about going on because of what it would do to him - although for myself I have the what is it all for or why do I have to keep hurting - but maybe there will be a grandchild or two in mu future - maybe something will come along to change and be uplifting. So I don't regret reading the book, and loved the music in the 90s and like most of us I will take what I can from her words and try to move on. It was an emotional read - and felt so hopeful for both her and myself after finishing it but then so close to finishing it she died and that was pretty raw. I don't normally read autobiographical books but I was drawn to it based on how I was feeling at the time. The only other famous person I read was one of Carrie Fisher and she died shortly after that too. So is it me? Although I grew up during Star Wars and didn't get the whole family dynamic until I was older. Thank you Wyonna for giving us this concert and being apart of your healing. I couldn't go in person but saw a lot of videos and cried and cheered you on. I don't know how you did it but it was amazing. I hope your family fills you with the love and support you need after this tour is ended. You are still a star. You are loved. And we are all amazed by you. Even if you never see this message - I am thankful.

    Hoda, I noticed the present tense speaking of her mom as well. My mother ‘is’ a kind person. I suppose it’s similar to phantom pain when a person looses a limb. They often say my hand hurts even if hand has been removed. Those nerve endings still register the wholeness of what was once so familiar.
    Wynonna is a remarkable speaker who always searched for appropriate words in order to project the best account of her situation and feelings. This makes he an enjoyable interview in my opinion.

The only thing that crosses my mind is that secrets that people choose to keep secrets can be blinding for the ones that are left behind. All viewers really know for sure about Naomi is that she was mesmerrizing on stage and a great story teller of life. What a beautiful woman with a beautiful soul. Her image of feminity is still imprinted in the minds of so many of us.

    Years ago was visiting friends in TN and they took me to Summer Lights. Somehow we got right up front and Wynonna came out. I was not sure who she was, but I left a fan. What a dynamic performer. Was lucky enough to see her again in my hometown.

    Wynonna, please keep shining your light, so brightly! You are amazing & this a huge gift that you share with the world, as well as your music. Your mom, is still& will forever be an amazing & beautiful soul, as are you & your sister. You have all brought great love & wisdom, to share with others. Thank you! My heart goes out to all of you. My aunt ended her life, the day after, I brought my first child (my daughter), home from the hospital & 2 days before her mom's birthday. My mom's brother's was in the Navy, during the Korean War & gave his life, to his country. He just turned 21a few days earlier, on Friday, Oct. 13, 1950& on Oct. 22, 1950. I was born . I believe that my daughter & I each came to comfort them, in their time of grief. They were her my mom's only siblings. Sending you love - hugs.❤❤❤

Very soon I know she will be able to pull herself up and reinvent herself as the strongest version of herself. Watch out everyone when she does this. It's going to be grand. Love and prayers to this phenomenal woman. ❤

    She’s such a beautiful woman and she was loved. She was loved so much, that the love her mom gave her, is what’s getting her through this terrible time. Her mom did what she did because her brain was sick, but not her heart. I hope her family will remember this. Love her mom and her family. Naomi did a wonderful job and made a life that was rememberable and great with the cards she was dealt.

I always noticed in their videos how Naomi would always put her hand behind WY back or elbow when they sang together. She would face WY singing alot. That says so much about her admiration towards WY. I wonder if WY ever noticed that. I missed alot of little things after my Mom died

    • @rpal320
      @rpal320 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Regardless of the choice, some people are depressed and suffering and feel there is no way out of their despair. I've been there and felt there was no way out. Fortunantly someone told me it's a perminant solution to a temporary problem. Most suicide victims do not know that missing piece of information. They think that life will forever be in deep depression and suffering. Only God can judge. NO one but Heavenly Father knows and understands the depth of hopelessness a person is facing.

A lot of times we don't even realize how it affects us. My mom passed on her childhood traumas onto me. She would tell me sometimes how her mother treated her and how she grew up and I would think to myself..that's exactly how she was treating me. I pointed this out to her one time and her reply was" well you didn't have it as bad as I did" I'm like 🙄😵‍💫

    Years ago I heard this woman say she don't mind letting the cracks show because that's how the light shines out of her. Instantly killed my need to be without flaws. Sidebar: I think that's why jobs only give a 5-day bereavement Because if you have too much time alone with the grief you may not be able to put yourself back together.

    Reba, I've lost my mother & father, I know how hard it is, my mom was my best friend. We did everything together. We traveled to Tennessee for Fan fair 5 years in a row. That was one of my favorite memories. You are my absolute favorite country singer. I didn't care for Country music, growing up, my father was from West Virginia & adored Country music. When I started listening to it, I told my mom, don't tell dad, lol! The reason being was because, I had complained to him about not caring for Country music for so long. I just knew that he would gloat. But now that is all that I will listen to & you are my absolute favorite!! I hope that you keep singing for asong as I'm on this earth!
