From the time she was a little girl, she had dreamed of being a famous singer and songwriter.
She constantly listened to the most popular songs and imagined herself writing and singing them. She walked around her house with headphones on, singing. She sang in variety shows and competed in talent contests.
At 23, she won a Grammy for a song she had written and recorded about a girl in search of fame.
It was her first and only hit. In pursuing fame, she had forgotten to live and never learned that life, not fame, is the stuff of song.
