David Rappaport
I once saw an interview with David Rappaport, the dwarf actor famous for Time Bandits, among many other appearances. He was, naturally, talking about his experiences as a dwarf, and how you have to take control of your life and overcome adversity.

Before becoming a successful actor, he had gained a degree, become a semi-professional drummer, and married and had a family. The program was quite simply one of the most inspirational and soul-affirming things I had ever seen, and I came away full of hope, admiration and a desire to try to emulate his confidence and resolve.

Two weeks later I heard that he'd committed suicide. I still don't know how to process that.

I think maybe he just couldn't face returning that map to the Supreme Being.
Fair enough I'd say.
