It is said R Williams has died, I’ll have to say that Robin Williams was one of my favorite actors because I loved his character in “Good Morning Vietnam” in “Mrs. DoubtFire” in “RV” and so on.

But I really don’t think I or barely anyone else can say they are grieving the real Robin Williams that has just died. The Robin Williams we all think of is probably about as real as the Genie from Alladin.
It seems only those close to the man really knew him.

I think we are starting to get glimpses of facets of the real Robin Williams. Borax Queen posted that her mom waited on him in San Fran and said he was always incredibly sweet to people. I read other accounts yesterday from various sources stating the same.

Even people we know face to face and maybe see everyday at work or school, we only see a certain part of them. No one can ever know ALL/100% of anyone. I guess only God has that privilege. People are terribly complex. The mind, the heart, the soul, emotions, depression.

I don’t know Robin Williams. He certainly wasn’t perfect just as the rest of us are not. He had demons like a lot of us do. I’m really sorry for him to have been in pain and to have taken his life. I understand that level of darkness and hopelessness. I hope maybe some good can come from this for people.
