Heath Ledger and What’s Not Real
Another famous actor is dead. Heath Ledger died yesterday and we don’t know why. Well, there reportedly were drugs near his body at the time of his death, some reports are speculating it may be suicide or drug overdose. Whatever the reason, it’s sad. Tragic actually.
Heath’s daughter, Matilda, is only two weeks older than my son. I can’t imagine my son not having his father around any more. At this age, kids call out for their Daddies (Mommies too). What will Matilda do?
I’m always surprised when famous people suddenly die. Didn’t he have everything? Good looks, daughter, fame, money. I don’t know the reason for Heath’s death, but it only goes to prove that life is short and that you never know what people are going though.
That person who lives across the street from you — the tall, dark and handsome one that drives the Beamer, whose wife stays at home with the 2.5 “perfect angels.” That person. You never know what’s lurking behind his doors. There could be serious issues. You life may not be as bad as you think. You can’t compare yourself to anyone else.
Let’s just be happy to be who we are. Hug your kid today.







You’re absolutely right. Life is too short and you don’t know what’s going to happen. I know what you mean about celebrities dying. They seem to have it all, and in a way seem immortal.
I feel for his young daughter. She’s not going to understand. At least, not yet.
