Robin Williams

Since yesterday, I have been reading on my Fb page, so many heart felt tributes to Robin Williams. I don't recall such an outpouring of love and grief happening for any other celebrity death in recent times.
And I am wondering what if he had known of this? What if he could have felt in his moments of deep despair and worthlessness, this love which was there for him? 
Yesterday, a very new friend of mine, said to me some good things she felt about me. After the initial surprise, I now find her words wrapped around me like a warm comforter. And I am sure glad she did not let the newness of our relationship, the awkwardness of unfamiliarity stop her from saying those good things to me.
Let's not fear stop us from saying what we really feel about others. Lets speak out our genuine feelings of love and appreciation. These words matter. They can do magic to another human being. They can maybe transform and save lives.
