The Profound Impact of Insightful Comedy in a World Steeped in Insanity

I was devastated by the news of Robin Williams’ suicide this week. The man was an extraordinary comedic genius who was loved by millions.

We’re all wondering the same thing right now, probably: How could a man with such talent and such professional success feel so tormented by life that ending it seemed like an easier option than living through it? From the outside, it’s seductively easy for all of us to second guess the reasons, but in truth we can’t know what it was like to be Robin Williams.

On the surface, it’s all too easy for us to say, “He had success, money, fame and fans. He had it all!” And yet, as any successful celebrity can tell you, it’s not that simple.

When you’re famous, it’s difficult to have real friends. The more famous you are, the worse it gets. You never know if people like you for who you truly are or if they just want to get close to you to exploit your celebrity or influence for their own aims.

As most famous actors can readily attest, being famous is a lonely life path. Privately lonely, that is. Regardless of what public persona famous actors must put on for professional reasons, in truth, at the end of the day, when you’re sitting in your hotel room readying your next public performance, being a famous person is often a very lonely existence.

Robin Williams said it himself as depicted in this quote: “I used to think the worst thing in life was to end up alone. It’s not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people that make you feel all alone.”
