Bourdain

WTF! Suicide? Anthony Bourdain hung himself says the news. That’s hard to believe. Looked like he was always having a full life – the passion, that enthusiasm, a curious outlook and drive to see new places…

So, these men were facades (thinking of Robin Williams too), the real part of them was contemplating an end. People give up for a variety of reasons. This can’t be judged with the bravery-cowardice binary. Men are complex. Lives are complex. And within all this people find their reasons to check out. Frightened with possibilities that human mind holds. Fascinated just the same.

RIP, AB

An adorable little thought from one of his interviews – 

“I wanted kicks — the kind of melodramatic thrills and chills I’d yearned for since childhood, the kind of adventure I’d found as a little boy in the pages of my Tintin comic books.”
