Jade Goody- Finally at peace

In India we would call it a real 'Tamasha'.

In the West, they call it a 'Media Circus'.

When a young woman of 27 died earlier today, it was really for the best.
For she was finally at peace.

Freed from all that had plagued her, particularly in the last two years of her life.

A self admitted Media creation, she died pretty much as died as she had lived ...in front of the television cameras.

Having been spared that final ignominy , for she died in her sleep. Never to wake up again.

For all that she had bared of herself and her last few days, was to raise money for her two young boys. Who have their whole lives ahead of them.

Can't help but wonder...Despite all that I might have thought about her during the 'bad' Big Brother days ..

It just happened to be the 21st of March...Mother's Day when she breathed her last.

Hi, I really like the way u write. Very crisp,concise and to the point.Jade Goody did not pretend to be anything else , during her life as well as in her death.One grudgingly gives her a thought 'coz really it musn't have been easy for her- smiling for the cameras while feeling the pain within; letting go of ur life at such a young age. And one also has to grudgingly admire her self-created "media-circus" and cashing in on it to build a safe nest for her boys.
