SEEMINGLY HAPPY…BUT REALLY….
SO VERY SAD
I was so sadden this morning to learn that a very funny comedian and talented actor had taken his own life. How could someone who was so funny on the outside… be so sad on the inside? I wish I could have talked to Robin and shared with him some good news.
When I meet people I don’t know…they look OK on the outside….but I wonder what’s going on in their insides. I wonder if their soul is saved. Have they made a decision for Jesus Christ?
People can look one way on the outside and feel another way on the inside. Robin Williams seemed to have it all…money,fame, and talent but one thing he didn’t have was hope and peace.
Millions of people are like that. Some other notables who had no peace were Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston , Marilyn Monroe, Judy Garland, Amy Winehouse, Kurt Cobain, Don Cornelius, Donny Hathaway, Ernest Hemingway,Freddie Prinze , Herve`Villechaize(Fantasy Island) to name a few and the list of regular everyday people who had no peace and lost their lives to hopelessness is in the millions.
I was that person who had no hope or peace… so I know what I’m talking about!!! I was completely healed in 1983! There is Hope and there is peace available and the only person I know who can give it is Jesus Christ. Let’s look around and see who we can share this good news with. Let’s pray for the famous and share with those who cross our paths.
If you’re the one who has no peace or hope and are suicidal right this minute….call 911, go to an emergency room, mental health facility right away for your safety. Please!! Emergency help is available!

Tanya, I like you feel so sorry for Robin, his friends and family. I know from experience the trauma of the suicide of someone you love. It has been years since his death but the pain is still there and will always be; blame myself for not seeing the signs but I really shouldn’t do that. The Lord allowed me to loose one friend but save several others so, I have to accept His will. Won’t know this side of Heaven the “Why”. As Debbie said keep doing what you are doing, you will never know on this side of Heaven who needs your words and who they will save. God bless you and Robin and his family. May the Lord hold all of you in His loving hands.

Tanya, I LOVE that picture of Jesus hugging somebody! It’s warm and comforting and such a secure place to be. I feel so sorry for Robin and his family. To have so much but not the RIGHT STUFF must be disheartening. Keep doing what you’re doing, Tanya — though you might never know (this side of Heaven) who needs to read what you say!

Robin’s death is tragic for all of us and maybe this will bring more light to mental illness that is so needed. He said many years ago that he was bipolar and part of that is the depression that killed him. I am bipolar 2 and without God in my life I don’t know where I would be at. I read your story and thank you for your honesty in writing it. I make quilts and that is my outlet for creativity.
