You know, life sucks; and then you die . . .
Robbin Williams, simply this man had issues; but he was such a wonderful entertainer. Maybe his issues stemmed from his upbringing or whatever but the man was an iconic figure.
His father deeply scared his younger more formative years and his natural creativeness and personality sort out alternative work types. His father said " no what is this acting business ", his father demanded he become a WELDER.
Robin hated everything about the welding trade, his father demanded he have a skill or trade to provide income in case his acting career did not work. ( Remember 99 percent of actors fail ) we only hear about the successful actors not the washouts . . .
Robin was at his fathers death bed and they were talking about life as his father lay dying. Somehow it was mentioned Robbin Williams was at the height of his career, a top paid actor, fabulously rich and success and an international star.
His father replied " yeah, but do you have a job " (or words like that), reality is nasty and no matter what Robbin achieved he would never be a success in his fathers eyes. Stupid parenting ultimately contributed to the world losing a great talent and a fabulous person.
Dad's can be just so pathetic at times . . .
Thank you Robbin for the joy you gave the world ! ! !
