Heath Ledger

I was reading the newspaper like I usually do every morning, when something at the edge of the page caught my attention-- Heath Andrew Ledger had passed away. When I saw the headings, I was momentarily stunted. I just couldn't believe the sight before me because, here it was, a young and talented actor who is on the brink of making it big it in the ever competitive Hollywood world had went ahead and left us. I was just not buying the whole story and while my eyes continued to scrutinize row after row, my mind just kept saying it must be mistake made by the tabloids. At that point , I was just so not believing it that I actually thought that it was just some kind of publicity which the press was using to boost up Heath's reputation. However, as I continued to read on till the very last word of the very last paragraph, the truth finally sunk in, there was no way the press was going to make a joke about a talented actor's death. It was just too inhumane to imagine.

So, when I finally accepted the news for a fact, I was like WOW. At the point, all I could thought of was how short and unpredictable life can be. It is just undoubtly true when someone come up to you and say life is fragile. Heath Ledger was just so young and talentedwhen he died that I truly felt sorry for the people that loved him and cared about him , and not to mention the entertainment industry. A dedicated actor to his passion for acting and not the big bugs that he is going to put in his fat bank account is just too hard to find nowadays, they don't come by easy anymore in this materialistic world we're living in.

Speaking about loved ones, I truly pity them ,especially his two year old daughter, Mathilda. Imagine a young girl who will never get the chance to know her father, not mentioning a father's love and company that she will never get to experience her entire life. At the thought of this, it is just so sad and heart wrenching. Sighhhh......................

Other than his family members, there is also his ever frenzy fans. I am no fan of him but I personally believe he is (was) a talented and dedicated actor who has (had) tons of good movies under his belt. As I was speaking about his fans, I am sure they would be very devastated and would express their condolences through his fan blog as well as speculate about the cause of his death , as after all his death happened so suddenly and autopsy results have yet to be released. Sometimes, I just can't help feeling pityful for those famous actors and actresses because they could never lead a private life, forever living in the public eyes. With the paparazzi forever diligently following up every detail in their lives, every small fault is written into a big affair, it is rather difficult to find peace and serenity in such life style. Such a pity..

Sigh again..............................
