My Favorite Robin Williams movie... What Dreams May Come. Robin Williams starred as the Father/Husband, Chris Nielson, who suffered so much heartache... In his real life he had felt heartache & struggled through depression for many years. Below are some of thought-provoking quotes from the movie. I listed my favorite last. A whole human life is just a heartbeat here in Heaven. Then well all be together forever. Whats true in our minds is true, whether some people know it or not. What some folks call impossible, is just stuff they havent seen before. * Is that a kind of occupational hazard of soul mates ? Ones not much without the other? Where is God in all of this? * “Thank you...for gracing my life with your lovely presence, for adding the sweet measure of your soul to my existence.” “They think of suicide as a quick route to oblivion, an escape. Far from it. It merely alters a person from one form to another. Nothing can destroy the spirit. Suicide only precipitates a darker continuation of the same conditions from which escape was sought. A condition under circumstances so much more painful.” * Soul mates. Its extrememly rare but it exists. Sort of like twin souls tuning into each other. Apparently even in death. * “Heaven would never be heaven without you.” * “All of us have a path to follow and the path begins on earth.” “Failures plagued me. Things I had omitted or ignored, neglected. What I should have given and hadn’t. I felt the biting pang of every unfulfillment.” “Each memory was brought to life before me and within me. I could not avoid them. Neither could I rationalize, explain away. I could only re-experience with total cognizance, unprotected by pretense. Self delusion was impossible, truth exposed in this blinding light. Nothing as I thought it had been. Nothing as I hoped it had been. Only as it had been.” * “There we will, I pray, remain and learn and grow until the time when we will rise together to the ultimate heights, changing in appearance but never in devotion, sharing the transcendent glory of our love through all eternity.” “Not only did I rediscover every experience of my life, I had to live each unfulfilled desire as well—as though they’d been fulfilled. I saw that what transpires in the mind is just as real as any flesh and blood occurrence. What had only been imagination in life, now became tangible, each fantasy a full reality. I lived them all—while, at the same time, standing to the side, a witness to their, often, intimate squalor. A witness cursed with total objectivity.” * Thank you for being someone I was always proud to be with. For your guts. For your sweetness. For how you always looked, for how I always wanted to touch you. You were my life. Im sorry for every time I ever failed you....especially this one. AND MY FAVORITE LINE FROM THE MOVIE: Everybodys hell is different. Its not all fire and pain. The real hell is your life gone wrong. I cannot honestly say how many times I have watched this movie. One night I played it three times, back-to-back... My heart need a good cry, my soul a purging, and this is just the movie to achieve such. Over the years many have laughed at the comedic presentation of Mr Williams... As well, many have felt the same kind of torment he tried to hide... I am grateful for the experience of both... Thank you Robin Williams for sharing your gift... Your talents will be missed. May you find peace.
