Heath Ledger (1979-2008), o actor que faleceu a semana passada, tinha concedido uma entrevista ao New York Times, duas semanas antes. Pelas suas palavras se pode inferir que a exaustão física e mental o estava a perturbar ao ponto de, já, numa última entrevista, revelar um certo descontrolo psicomotor. Neste Mundo Plano, cuja competitividade e aceleração constantes nos obrigam a ultrapassar os nossos próprios limites de resistência psíquica e física, frequentemente, descurando os sinais de esgotamento da nossa mente e do nosso corpo, situações dramáticas como esta começam a tornar-se comuns entre uma faixa populacional jovem.
Que a sua alma encontre a Paz que não encontrou nesta dimensão!
Aqui fica o excerto da entrevista que encontrei em: http://cinemanotebook.blogspot.com/2008/01/heath-ledger-1979-2008.html:
“Last week I probably slept an average of two hours a night,” he said. “I couldn’t stop thinking. My body was exhausted, and my mind was still going.” One night he took an Ambien, which failed to work. He took a second one and fell into a stupor, only to wake up an hour later, his mind still racing.(...)Even as he spoke, Mr. Ledger was hard-pressed to keep still. He got up and poured more coffee. He stepped outside into the courtyard and smoked a cigarette. He shook his hair out from under its hood, put a rubber band around it, took out the rubber band, put on a hat, took off the hat, put the hood back up. He went outside and had another cigarette. Polite and charming, he nonetheless gave off the sense that the last thing he wanted to do was delve deep into himself for public consumption. “It can be a little distressing to have to overintellectualize yourself,” is how he put it, a little apologetically."
