Hester no more

I was sad to hear a few days ago that Paul Hester, among other things drummer for crowded house, took his own life. Crowded House was one of the main reasons music got a hold of me and I've spend many hours listening to the music that Paul was a part of. He had a real presence and was a real character.
What a waste, someone so talented and full of life to come to the decision that it needs to end so soon.
As westerners we like to say things like, "well he is in a better place now", but as a christian I know that this isn't always the case - this is what makes it a sad story.
