Due to the death of his wife, Natasha Richardson, Liam Neeson announced he is putting his film career on hold. His latest movie that he starred the leading role in the action/thriller, “Taken”, he will do no more films after that. He is set to do future projects, but he will have to drop out of them. This hiatus will only be temporary but not permanent. No word on how long Liam will take a hiatus, but he can take all the time off he needs. He can even retire from Hollywood if that’s what is best for himself and his family.
Why do bad things happen to good people? Stay strong, Liam buddy. That man will be heartbroken and depressed for the rest of his life now. He’ll never get over this, just like John Travolta will never get over the death of his son.
These celebrities and movie stars don’t need to keep working over the death of a family. The same goes for Jennifer Hudson. I don’t know why she continues to do music with losing her family members, but she does anyways. Her hiatus from her career was very short.
John Travolta and Liam Neeson’s hiatus will probably be a long one. I feel bad for Liam. Liam and Natasha seems like a very happy couple, Natasha was a very beautiful woman for her age too. RIP, Natasha.

Have you ever lost a close family member? It sucks and it’s life-altering, but it is not something you spend the rest of your life crying about. Losing a child MIGHT be the exception.
You can’t mourn for your whole life. At some point you have to pick up the pieces and just move on already.
Speaking as somebody who has lost a good number of close family members, you shouldn’t presume to know what other people are feeling. It’s disrespectful and really not your place.
I know, I know. It’s a free country and you have the right to express your opinion just like everybody else, blah blah blah. But when you state your opinions as facts, i.e., “Of course, people who loses a loved one in their lives, will feel sad and depressed for the rest of their lives,” they are not opinions anymore. It’s simply talking out of your ass about things you know nothing about.
I feel terribly for Liam Neeson and John Travolta and Jennifer Hudson, and everybody on the planet who has suffered a painful loss. But just because you, personally, would hang around depressed for the rest of your life if somebody you cared about died, it doesn’t mean that the rest of the planet should/would follow suit.

Sure it’s “okay” to mourn somebody for the rest of your life. But it doesn’t mean that your whole life has to be focused on the fact that they aren’t there anymore.
I lost my mother, who was a single parent. Ten years ago. I was fourteen. She was the only person I had, and life was hard after that. But you know what, I live a perfectly healthy, happy life.
You can’t pretend to know what other people are thinking. People remarry all the time; do you hold this against them?
You are constantly stating things as if they are inarguably true, which is something I find very entertaining most of the time. Liam Neeson could, in fact, spend the rest of his life in a depressed stupor as a result of this. I just don’t think that is very likely.
I am not saying that you ever forget the loss of a loved one, and I never even implied that. What YOU said was that people who lose a loved one are depressed and sad for their whole lives, but that’s a really strong statement to make and one that cannot be applied universally.
Mourning is different from not forgetting, and the pain lessens over time. Most rational people would agree.
I’m not sure where I said anything about not being compassionate — in fact, I believe I mentioned that I feel terribly for these people. You’re the one being negative.
You: People will be sad and depressed for the rest of their lives.
Me: People will move on with their lives after some time goes by, but they are going to be okay.
In summation: I don’t know what you are talking about and I don’t think that you do either.

Well, I’m a girl. So I’m not expecting to have a wife or girlfriend or anything like that ever, but I am theoretically of the emotional sex. So take that for what you will.
What I am saying is that not EVERYBODY feels the way that you do. Not EVERYBODY’s life ends because somebody that they love dies.
You are never going to be right about this, though. Just because you would be content with a life of depression and sadness and gloominess and crying every single day doesn’t mean that it’s the norm. People get remarried all the time. People still smile and laugh and live their lives when somebody they love dies.
I’m not saying that everybody does this or feels this way, but just because something awful happens and you lose somebody, it doesn’t mean that your life is over. You are the one who says, “Liam Neeson feels like this and he will feel like this for always and forever.”
What I am saying, on the other hand, is that what happened to Natasha Richardson is horrible and my heart goes out to Liam and their respective families. I don’t know how he is feeling. I don’t know how he will be feeling in a week, a month, six months, a year. But probably things will improve, because that’s generally how life goes.
When you say that so and so is feeling X and he will be feeling this way for the rest of his life and he will never get over it, that is incredibly disrespectful.
I promise that I will tell you how I react to my boyfriend and/or husband’s demise twenty years after the fact. I’m going to go right ahead and assume I won’t have lost my will to live, though. It’s just a hunch based on the rational concept that life, you know, goes on.

Well whatever, everyone is different. Some people move on and some people don’t. Both of us are not talking facts, we’re only talking opinions. Everyone has their different views when people lose a love one close to their life. It’s all up to them to whatever they want to do. People never get over the death of a loved one, that is a fact. I don’t see how it’s disrespectful at all. That’s only your opinion.

I think I lean toward the blog owner here.
AV has some good points and so does Brock N Roll Entertainment.
I hope this doesnt happen to anyone ever. Even if you get over it is must still “effing” suck bad.
On a side note, maybe AV and the blogger should have coffee and talk. You know what they say about opposites and “fire and ice!” That would be a cool way to meet someone special. AV sounds smart and cute.

It all depends on where AV lives. If she lives in the Capital District area somewhere closer to me, then I’m all for meeting her up for coffee. I enjoy meeting blog readers in person as I’ve met plenty of blog readers in person in the past. If AV llives long distance and far away, then it would be impossible.
I agree though, she seems like a cool and smart chick.
If anyone wants to get to know me more, feel free to e-mail me, I enjoy chatting with strangers online.

I don’t talk about this too often, but I lonce ost my family to a car accident. Mom, dad, the twins, all of them. They were on their way home from bowling one night, and it was one of those dark and stormy nights, and a drunk driver swerved across the median on I-87 and hit mom’s Isuzo Rodeo head on. I was depressed for a long time, and people kept telling me, “cheer up Rezzy, things happen for a reason.” It would piss me off when they’d say that because they never had to lose their whole family in one shot like I did. Assholes! I was drinking a lot and smoking lots of pot, anything to forget about my troubles, and I got fired from my job at Home Depot for failing the drug test after sporking a customer in the lumber department with a fork lift, though my boss felt real bad about that because he knew about my situation. One night I was drunk and got into a fight and beat this guy up real bad, put him in the hospital, and the judge made me see a psychiatrist or go to jail. Things were pretty bad, I never thought things could be worse, and I started praying with all my heart for a sign. Then I got a call from my lawyer and he said we won! I got a big check and things started looking up. Things really do happen for a reason.
Sorry for laying all of this depressing stuff on you, but I’m doing much better these days so it’s all good.
