By coincidence, Reelz is running a marathon on actors and musicians that left this earth entirely too soon.
I don’t want to talk about their untimely deaths. I don’t want to talk about accidental overdoses. I don’t want to talk about drug addiction. I don’t want to talk about suicide.
I want to talk about life. Here was a group of wealthy, beautiful, talented individuals that seemed to have it all. They had their triumphs. They had their letdowns. They had great times and bad times. They did magnificent things, they did things that they may have been ashamed of. They were human. Flawed as all of us are. Money does not prevent life from happening. It cannot wipe away our frailties.
One thing about artists when they pass, they leave behind a legacy. Their writings, music, movies will go on. They are eternal.
Let’s not remember these artists for their tragedies. They were so much more than what ended their lives. So much more.
Many blessings!
I miss Robyn Williams, among many others.
It’s hard not to remember him for all the wonderful things he did and the millions of people he helped to have a better day, just by laughing.
I miss him also. I could not watch any of his movies after he died. He was amazing. I grew up with him. More and Mindy.
My favorite star of all time died in a tragic accident at 22. But because he was so amazing and talented, when I listen to his music I’m never thinking about how/when he died. Of course it’s there– it happened, but like you said about these people, “they were so much more than what ended their lives” Very well put! Thanks for another great post! 🙂
Good post. Sometimes I’ll get a bit sad at the loss of a celeb, but we still have their work to enjoy. That’s what we should celebrate!
Thank you! ❤️ I get sad also. Especially about Heath Ledger. He was brilliant. But as you said we should celebrate their lives, no matter how short.
I think Ms Venturini is good enough to be on tv… 😊
Aww thanks. I don’t know about all that but I’ll take the compliment!
Lol!! Yes! Take the compliment! 😝😆
I agree! Its good to remember their music, or acting, or whatever they did that brought a smile and joy. xx
Amen!
An excellent read
Thank you!
