Paul Walker R.I.P. 1973-2013
Recently
there was a tragedy that has taken not only effect on Hollywood, but the fans
and admirers around the country of Paul Walker. Walker died in a car accident
on November 30th, 2013. They have announced that he survived the crash but while
still stuck in the car moments later, died of traumatic injuries.
It
truly does surprise me that at any moment, on any day, anybody we love could
die. It is a hard thing to think about and comprehend. Some of the strangest
things happen to people weather they deserve it or not. Some would go as far to
argue over Paul Walkers death as it should have happened sooner. This being
said because of the movies he portrayed himself in. The high flying, fast paced
movies everyone has heard of, The Fast and the Furious. This was Paul Walkers
movie series, and let’s be honest none of us would have watched them, had it
not been him the lead actor.
Paul
Walker was an adrenaline junkie. No he did not get his rush from drugs, but
more of living life on the edge. Is it a coincidence that being the star of a
fast paced street racing movie, he died in the same exact thing and object that
made him who we know? It is the fact that things that seem to be great and
amazing to us, can turn on us in a second. From pets, to houses, to cars.
Anything of great significance in our life has the possibility of not turning
out the way we planned it to turn out. I am sure that when Paul Walker left on
November, 30th he had plans to return home that night. Not even thinking of the
possibility of him dying, and rightfully so. The man was healthy and just 40
years old, what is there for him to worry about?
Just forty years old, still young in the eyes of humanity, and his life
was taken from him in the blink of an eye. Paul Walker leaves behind his
girlfriend of seven years, and a fifteen year old daughter. That day he left he
probably did not think to say goodbye or even tell anyone he was leaving. The
statistic of dying in a car accident is not that low but still unfortunately
Paul Walker was the 1-84 chance of dying in a car accident.
So is this a coincidence that he died by car. Is it the possibility that
the statement of “Eye for an Eye, tooth for a tooth” possibly showed the light
here? Live by the gun die by the gun is an even better saying for this
situation. Is it possible to live by the car die by the car?
This is not meant to
be in praise of his death. I am grieve stricken just like everyone else. These
are just a few of my thoughts. All my regards go out to the Walker Family. May
grieving end soon and may you realize not the sad times, but the good. God
Bless
