When I was in middle school and high school I used to watch his shows and learn so much about the world that school could never teach me. I used to sit there and get a little depressed wondering as just a poor Burmese immigrant, if I would ever able to travel to all these places one day too. Years later, I’ve been very lucky to be able to travel to 23 countries now. This summer I went to the restaurant he and Obama ate at in Hanoi and I started crying tears of joy. It was one of those rare moments in life where I felt like “I made it.” I dreamed of moments like that and I’m finally traveling to beautiful places and trying so many delicious foods and meeting so many genuinely nice people. I’m so thankful for him for showing us the world and connecting us to different cultures through food. I’m sure there are millions of other travelers who were inspired by this great man. I hope he finally found his peace.

We need to improve the overall morale of our individual environments to truly combat depression. Raise up the spirits of the local communities. Promote local businesses, volunteer, join a club, adopt a rescued pet, donate to charity... So many examples; but yet all that can seem so daunting. (David Bowie's 'pressure' comes to mind.) With such small pockets of people that are able to help,(amazing to even have "extra" time) to be so civically engaged. And then you have the "other" types of people, that basically add to the "stuff" you should all warn your children to stay away from! The dark, disturbing, & harmful things that lurk seemingly everywhere, that suck good people toward the abyss of many agonies. I think depression stems from mostly external influence; negative exposures combined with overbearing weight of sadnesses & unresolve. As for Mr. Anthony Bourdain I have no guesses as to why he did what he did. It breaks many hearts all the same. I hope he is in a better place.

I've been battling it daily for over a decade and still, there's not a lot of people I feel I can trust with this part of my life.

Yes, Rest In Peace. I watched Mr Bourdain’s show Parts Unknown because of my son who recognizes what I might like but don’t know about. So I’ve watched episodes with him and learned many things about the state of countries and the people who live in them. Some from these shows in which Mr Bourdain is a respectful participant/observer and much from my son, also respectful and knowledgeable. So Mr Bourdain touched the lives of people who watched these shows in ways he might not have known. I saw he could be critical of himself in the programs, mostly hidden by a manner that suggested confidence. He had already tragically died before I watched any of his shows, so I was always aware of that as I watched him, as though I would see traces of an explanation, even knowing that that will not be possible to find.

I am saddened, as I am sure many other admirers are, about his suicide. The people who feel the most, those who have the most passion and emotion, those that love the deepest, be it people or their craft, often times are the ones that lose hope in humanity’s failures. Both you and I know that you are not gone, no-one ever is, but it is sad that the vessel you inhabited has passed. My heart hurts. See you around, Anthony Bourdain.
