Chester Bennington committed suicide today in his Palos Verde home by hanging. I am not reporting this as a story but just giving my two cents about this trend that we are seeing here in the music industry.
Singer for Linkin Park and Stone Temple Pilots, who could ask for anything more. Chester was a talented vocalist with a serious set of pipes. Looking at his life as a singe we could see that Chester was blessed with a talent that allowed him to sing with amny other famous bands and singers. With this kind of life, with fame and fortune, how could anyone take their own life? Same is said about Christ Cornell. These 2 men were talented and had it all. We think.
Both seemed to be troubled by abuse of drugs and or drugs. It is sad when we see this happening to others. The pain and suffering they face daily has drove them to addiction. Addiction clouds the mind into seeing a different reality. The truth of what is happening around them is not seen due to the foggy mind that drugs and alcohol subdues the user. No matter how much money and fame they had it was still not enough to fix their issues. We will never understand why these 2 did what they did but we can deduct that money cannot fix everything.
Please pray for the surviving members of Chester's family, 6 children and 2 wives and also keep Chris Cornell's wife and children in them as well.
