Remember Elvis Presley? Yes the same American singer and actor who is considered to be one of the most important cultural icons of the 20th century and is often known as the “King of Rock and Roll”.
Although he left from the world in the 1970s, he had a family. Now as per a recent report, his only grandson Benjamin Keough who was only 27 years old was found dead in Calabasas near Los Angeles.
The local media are citing the cause of Benjamin’s death as suicide.
Although Benjamin hardly made any public appearances, but he looked his grandfather Elvis in many ways.
Benjamin was a musician by profession and also had tried his hands on acting.
It is saddening to see so many celebrities committing suicide due to some personal or professional reasons that is making them this last step in their lives.
Suicide is by no means a good thing for anyone – be it the person or his / her family. Anyone’s death in the family can cause so much emotional harm which cannot be imagined and even expressed in words.
If you are or you know someone going through consistent negative thoughts or depressive symptoms, please take help. Speak to someone whom you trust or consult a doctor.
It’s never too late to live again in a new way than to say good bye to the world.
