Description

There are already posts about this, but I felt I had to make this.  

 
Robin Williams was not only a comedy legend, but a personal hero of mine; and the news of his untimely death has left me feeling numb and on the verge of tears.
 
Depression is no laughing matter, and the fact that it could even affect someone with such zany, manic exuberance like Mr. Williams is absolutely tragic.
 
Rest well, Rob…we ain’t ever gonna have a friend like you again. :(

shortly after he died, his widow and their doctor revealed what really drove him to suicide. He was coming down with rapidly advancing cases of Parkinson’s and Lewy Body Dementia. He had been given only three more years before he was pretty much a vegetable.

“We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, “O me! O life!… of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless… of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?” Answer: that you are here; that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?”

That’s the tragic part of all of this: it’s impossible to see suicidal tendencies until it’s too late to help. They always said that the saddest people laugh the most, and this year seems to be proving that point.
