"We Are Destined to be Stars!"
by judy Joy jones

Painter Vincent Van Gogh appeared to the people around him; a complete looser. Yet if you read the letters he wrote to his brother Theo; Vincent predicted almost to the day exactly how long he would live as a painter. Knowing his calling and sparing his body nothing; Vincent lived his life as a saint, giving every second of his remaining eight years to his art.

Were we able to ‘see ahead’ very often the person who is ‘dead to the world’ during their lives; will one day in time, be a household name!

Poet Emily Dickinson never published a book during her life; yet now is one of the most well-known poets in the world.

Painter Frida Kahlo; married to muralist Diego Rivera sold only two paintings during her life. She considered her husband Diego and not herself, the Star. Other planets will be named after Ms. Frida Kahlo and her art is now all over the world.

We are all destined to be stars at some moment in time; so enjoy the dance!
