Keanu Reeves has been all over the internet in recent times for John Wick 3, Toy Story 4 and also Cyberpunk 2077, a video game to which he has lent his voice, face, and performance. I'm sure everyone has seen videos depicting that he's the most humble, down to earth Hollywood star ever. Let's decode why all of a sudden he's being the sensation? What made him so humble?

It's hard to believe that he is 54 years old. His name originates from a Hawaiian word meaning“ cool breeze over the mountains”. I think it’s a miracle that his parents named him so aptly and there are many instances to support this statement.

One such incident was when his flight from Los Angeles to San Fransisco had to abruptly land in a remote airport due to a mechanical failure. There we spotted Keanu discussing the issue with the officials and talking with the fellow passengers on how to reach the nearest airport. Then more shockingly, he just sat with all the passengers in a van and enjoyed the ride singing songs and joking along with the passengers.

We can also find a video on YouTube where he travels by subway train and offers his seat to a lady who just gets on board.

The way he cut off his remuneration so that AlPacino could star in the movie alongside him tells us how much he loves his movies.

Recently, when a random fan shouts out to Keanu Reeves, “ You are breathtaking”, the blush on his face and the immediate reply,” You are Breathtaking, you all are breathtaking”, won many hearts again.

From buying breakfasts and lunches for grunt workers, giving a Christmas bonus of 20000 dollars to a needy poor set builder, to buying Harleys for all the special effects designers working for the movie Matrix, he showed that he doesn’t look down upon his other fellow beings.

It's not just the movie workers. When a lady’s car broke down, he went 50 miles out of his way to drop her safe. Who would imagine that a Hollywood star would hang out with a homeless man and share a few drinks and snacks as the person is sharing his stories with him?

All this makes us wonder what made him so kind and humble. The answer is ‘Pain’. He lost his father at the age of 3. His stillborn baby was dead. His girlfriend died in a crash a few days after that. His sister fought leukemia. He dealt with an overexcited fan who trespassed his property and scared him. I know the last one sounds not so painful but it is a bad, scary thing to deal with.

His life is a perfect example to tell the universe that 'No Pain No Gain’ and ‘Suffering makes you better’.

So the next time you are suffering, just remind yourselves that it’s a good thing and it is capable of enlightening you. Even though that doesn’t make you feel better but it makes you feel like ‘ You are suffering for a Purpose’.
