Wish you well…..

To Owen Wilson,
I was sorry to hear about the choice you tried to make with your life. Had you succeeded, not only would a life have been wasted, it would have been one that brought so much laughter into this world. I love the movies, especially comedies and in recent times, I can’t think of many people very much funnier than you. Just looking at you makes me laugh. You are a gifted actor and comedian. What is it about lives that bring so much joy to people being so fraught with sorrow?

As a person, I wonder what drove you, another person to get to such a point that there was no other way except to take your own life. I’m sure your life isn’t easy. You have great fame and wealth, both together make life very easy in some ways and very difficult in others. Since I have neither, I can’t presume what it is like. Just like I can’t understand how hard it must be for the poor in my country who have nothing at all. But they fight to live. Because that is all they have the right to. Their right to their full natural life, what it may be. The same right you have.

It’s easy to say life can’t be that bad, but it’s also hard. If life was easy, where’s the fun in that? If there were no bad times, there couldn’t be the good. And the good times are that much better because you rode over the bad. Don’t give up.

I wish you luck and a speedy recovery. And if you want a laugh, watch Shanghai noon, Shanghai Knights, Wedding Crashers or the Mask. (yes, I know you weren’t in that one, but how can anyone be unhappy watching Jim Carrey?) They always work for me!
