The World woke up to the shocking News on August 13th 2014. The King of Comedy-Robin Williams- who lit so many smiles in many a countenance of his “global audience” had apparently committed suicide due to severe depression. For some time now his apparently happy face had masked a heavy heart weighed down with despair. Well, this was not the first time a rich comedian had contemplated suicide.
Let’s board a time machine and visit the era of English theatres and circuses’. A psychiatrist had a patient suffering from severe bout of depression. And the wise Doctor’s prescription after examination! “Go and entertain yourself, by seeing the famous clown Grimaldi performing in the circus in the town today, his antics are bound to make you laugh…you sure would find some relief”. Instantly the patient broke down much to the astonishment of the mind Doctor. The Doctor could barely hear the patient muttering “Doc, I am Grimaldi”. Talk of masking the GRIM sentiments even while making people laugh. Honestly, Grimaldi went to a wrong doctor. He ought to have visited Dr. Jesus, the omnipyschiatrist, ever willing to give ABUNDANT LIFE, WITH EVER-FLOWING JOY OF THE INDWELLING HOLY COMFORTER (John 4:13-14/ 10:10/ 14:16-18/ Galatians 5:22-23-KJV).
