CrankyBuddhist   the learning never ends …

I was sad to hear that Heath Ledger passed away just a couple of hours ago. It’s hard to think of someone so young and on an upward spiral burning out so quick, but it happens. I enjoyed his performance in Brokeback Mountain immensely.

So my thought process when I heard this news went something like:

That’s so sad.
Wow, he had so much life left.
He was too young.
Well, that was his karma.
I wonder if he did everything he wanted to do in life.
He had a baby.
I did not know this person.
hmm.
But in this I can see the lesson of living in the moment.
