He was part of their childhood.<br /><br />I didn't know that you suffered from depression. Its happened to me from time to time and its quite difficult. Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone.<br /><br />I look forward to finding out about clown masks! :) Jim Belshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10075614280789984767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-62834706209263099362014-08-12T09:55:50.007+10:002014-08-12T09:55:50.007+10:00Jim I am sorry you lost the debate - not that actu...Jim I am sorry you lost the debate - not that actually winning it was any part of the point. You seem to have enjoyed it, and that certainly was part of the point, I expect.<br /><br />I had an "oh no!" moment just a little while ago reading of the death of Robin Williams. He was such a joy to watch, in a wide range of roles. He is said to have fought depression, something which I have also, and continuing, experienced. He's the sort of valuable human for whom I really do hope there is 'somewhere better' to go - although I have long since left my hopes for that packed away.<br /><br />Sorry to rabbit on; his face always was to me the epitome of the clown mask, on which for some reason, they always paint tears. I might distract myself by trying to find out just where and how that traditional depiction came to be.<br /><br />kvdAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
