They Found Naya :(

As most of the world knows, former Glee star, Naya Rivera, has been missing for several days, after boating with her son. 

You know, people say a lot of things bad things about actresses, assuming they're all narcissistic and all about themselves, and many times, it's true - i.e., her Glee costar Lea Michelle is apparently one of those people and has become infamous for it. 

However, many aren't, but get a bad rap because of the audacity of the other ones; when in fact, some are unusually sensitive/empathetic people.

This is supposedly the case of Naya - she played a Mean Girl, but by all accounts, she wasn't a Mean Girl at all, in real life (but Lea Michelle, on the other hand may really be, in real life)?

According to her 4-year-old son, Naya  "pushed him in the boat" but "didn't come back up."

(Yes, though she and her ex were in a previous bitter custody battle that became physical at one time, that was settled, charges were dropped, and there really is no foul play OR suicide with this one. ) 

Apparently, at present, what is presumed to have happened - based on what her son said - was they were swimming in a heavily brushy/tree-filled area, with debris underwater.  He was wearing a life preserver, she wasn't - and and she likely became entangled/caught in the brush while swimming?  

When she realized she wouldn't be able to free herself from the brush, she grabbed her son and pushed him on the boat, continued to try to free herself, only to become more entangled, and drowned :(

Thus, Naya's final act was to make sure her son got back in that boat safely, so that he could be found and survive, knowing she was going to eventually drown if she couldn't free herself :(

Absolutely haunting and heartbreaking at the same time ...

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Uh oh uh oh

Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when
She stands under my colours, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it oughta be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life,
Well, I've had just enough time

If I die young bury me in satin.
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time

And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by

The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time

So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Uh oh (uh oh)

The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time when your really gonna need 'em oh

The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys, and I'll wear my pearls


In case you've never heard the original, it's a song by the Bluegrass/Folk Band, called "The Band Perry" ...
