Ken Haystead reads an article about the long and creative life of the great modern artist Joan Miró. The lesson to be learned in the telling of Miró’s tale is that longevity seems to be directly related to a person’s ability to maintain a strong desire throughout his/her life. A purpose in life is essential to our well-being and will to live. Longevity involves an unfailing belief that we, as individuals, do have something worthwhile to offer. Miró’s legacy goes far beyond the wealth of art he left behind. Its essence lies more with the way in which he experienced his life.
