I am not even sure how to start this post. Actor, Lee Thompson Young is dead. His body was discovered today. He was only 29, and he took his own life. He is most popular for being in Disney’s The Famous Jett Jackson. I know him more from Smallville, where he played the part of Cyborg.
It’s always shocking when someone dies, even if you knew the person would die. It’s more shocking when it’s a young person — and when the person took his own life. From human and basic eyes, you think, what could be so bad? But everyone has a struggle that we don’t know about, and it’s only by His grace that we are where we are. I don’t know what his inner demons were, but I pray that God welcomes him back. May God give his friends and family the fortitude to bear this loss, and may his soul rest in perfect peace. Amen.

I don’t understand either, Jennifer. And thank you so, so much for the welcome!
Berry Dakara says
I was in so much shock when I heard! I remembered him from Disney days. It’s just so sad. I feel like too many of the Young Hollywood set are dying. I’m still trying to get over Cory Monteith, Heath Ledger and even Brittany Murphy. May he RIP 🙁

I guess there’s so much pressure on them when they become rich and famous at such a young age. Still, it is so, so disheartening. You never prepare yourself for losing a young person.
