Remembering Robin Williams

I know this has nothing to do with coffee but I wanted to take the time today to remember a man that many people loved dearly and laughed with throughout all these years, Robin Williams.

Robin was a well known actor and comedian who played many hilarious roles. He was a comedic genius. He could make you laugh and cry at the same time. Some of his well known acting roles include Mrs. Doubtfire, Jumanji, Good Will Hunting, Aladdin and Hook.

One of my personal favorites has always been his role as the Genie in Aladdin. I grew up watching that movie and he always made me laugh throughout that movie. I read my daughter an Aladdin story every night and she always laughs at the goofy big blue Genie.

He was an inspiration to many people and he will be missed very dearly. He brought light to this sometimes dark world. He allegedly committed suicide, he has been battling depression for many years.
This makes me think, just because somebody is laughing does not mean that somebody is okay on the inside. So many people loved this man and I think it is important to always tell your loved ones how much you care for them and love them.

This was an extremely tragic event that made many people sad but I still want to shine light on how wonderful of a person he was and how many life's he has changed just from his amazing acting. My heart goes out to his family and I want us all to just take a minute to celebrate his life.

Genie, you are now free.

R.I.P Robin Williams.           You will be so very missed.
