Robin Williams

"The seemingly happiest of people are actually the saddest." - me

Robin Williams died last August 11 by suicide. I've read somewhere that comedians are actually a serious lot. Or they are among the saddest people. Maybe making people laugh is an act of self-preservation.

Social media exploded with tributes. It is indeed sad that someone universally well liked did not feel enough to stay - I'm paraphrasing his daughter Zelda's tribute.

On some level, I do get him. Rest in paradise, Robin.
