ROBIN WILLIAMS, THANK YOU.
When I was very young and struggling with the courage to follow my dreams I stumbled upon a beautiful film written by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. It was called "Good Will Hunting." I became fascinated with it (as I'm sure many others did) and a bit obsessive about it. I found the screenplay online somewhere and printed it out and read it over and over again. And I memorized every line. Especially Robin Williams' famous scene with Damon on a park bench.
That movie and most importantly Robin's performance gave me the spark that I needed to say, "Yes." Yes, to my dreams. Something that I needed in order to take my first step toward my hopes and aspirations.
And so this little note is to you, Robin. Just a little note to say, THANK YOU.
