I am sure I'm not alone when I say that it feels like a beloved piece of my childhood has died with the sad news of Robin Williams' death this week. Depression is no laughing matter. Robin Williams was a living juxtaposition of both.
For a man known for his humor, he sure did have some seriously good thoughts. The aforementioned being one of my favorites. And in the spirit of continual learning, here are a few (very random) things I learned this past week.
// Did you know...
that there is such thing as a Cupcake ATM? I saw; and I resisted.
that you can burn over 200 calories doing just 20 minutes of kickboxing?
that (apparently) by filing a mason jar with water and setting it on your outdoor table, you can repel bugs?
that scientists believe they may have finally figured out why humans yawn (and why it's contagious)? Are you yawning as you read this?...
that 1 out of 10 Americans report having some form of depression? (source: CDC) That's a lot. I often wonder if our high speed, constant contact, information powered lifestyles are partially to blame.
Did you learn something new this week?
