Robin Williams: July 1951 - Forever

I woke up to the sad news of Robin Williams Demise. He probably committed suicide. When I see him, look at his work and see how much people love him I wonder why did he need to take his own life. What could have gone so wrong? Wasn't he supposed to be one of the happiest persons on this planet? His death certainly defies this.  I wish I knew him - I would have tried to stop him. So many of us would have liked to stop him. But I guess it is this point where you make yourself not reachable.

Suicides are a taboo everywhere. I guess that is because we probably don't choose to be born either. We have always been told that it is one of the most coward acts or that it is a sin of the highest order. I don't think that committing suicide is a sin. I hope it is not. It is certainly sad. I do feel that it could have been nicer if that person could have put his life to better use. Better use by teaching whatever you know or just make a good conversation with someone or just donate body parts. But I guess sometimes things are actually easier said than done. It is free will I guess.

He lived glorious - whatever he lived. If he was suffering from depression for so long then hats-off to him for making millions cry with laughter. He did his bit. Mr. Robins, you pulled for really long and pulled on really well. I wish what you did is not a sin in the book of gods. I really wish that this has brought you peace you needed.

You will always be one of my happiest childhood memories! May your soul Rest in Peace!
