Paul Walker (1973-2013)

Paul Walker

September 12th 1973- November 30th 2013

3 years ago Paul Walker and his friend Roger Rodas have passed away in a car accident, which the police said was caused by speed, the car have have drifted off the road and caught on fire. That news was devastating for A LOT of people. I myself have cried and was in grieve for a long time. Then I read how the accident happened and I... I just broke. My heartbeat slowed and I felt absolutely broken. My mind kept repeating the same sentence over and over again... " If one day the speed kills me do not cry because I was smiling "- Paul Walker. I closed my eyes and memories just flashed by... His beautiful smile, his deep looking gorgeous eyes, his BIG beautiful heart, the way he made me feel every second just by thinking about him. He has inspired me to go after my dreams and to 'go big or go home'.

Watching the Fast and Furious movies, I fell in love with all the characters. The importance of family for them, their loyalty, their protectiveness over each other, the way they drove... Everything about them was special and beautiful. It showed such a powerful bond, a strong family-love bond, it was inspiring in so many ways I can't even explain.

I once asked myself, 'What if there is a real life version of Brian O'Conner? Of Dominic Torrito?'... and then I realized that there is; Paul and Vin are the real life versions of Brian and Dom... Their friendship is as strong as brotherhood, and that is the truth.

Looking at it from my view, I miss Paul a lot and then I change the perspective into his family's view; his daughter's view and I think, if I -the person who has never even had the chance to meet Paul- miss him that much, then how does his family feel? I can only imagine...

Paul is no stranger to cars in real life and I just feel it's kinda weird that he's been acting for over 10 years in a cars and racing movie and then he passes away in a car accident. But that doesn't matter, none of that matters, what matters is the way we keep him alive, by remembering all of his good works, his charity investments, his happy moments, by keeping him in our history, by keeping him forever in our hearts and always in our thoughts and memories. I was gonna mention all his achievements and accomplishments but I'm gonna leave that for the web. The reason I'm writing this is because I genuinely love Paul Walker.

Have you ever felt alone, like a failure, like you're never going anywhere in life and all your dreams are just so stupid? Well I have and Paul is one of the people that helped me through... His positivity, his determination to make the world a better place... it gave me the push I needed to go through that obstacle and... I made it. I still have a long road ahead of me and there will be many other obstacles, but that 'push' will always be helpful. Because Paul is gonna be forever in my heart.

I can go on forever on how Paul has made a great impact on this world and on me but I'll leave it here. I'm not gonna say that we lost him in this world, because we didn't, he's right here ( pointing at the middle of my heart ), he'll forever be here.

Thank you Paul for everything you've done, I love you so much and I miss you even more. Until I see you again ( or for the first time in my case! ) my friend <3 <3 <3
