Shine on Vision of Life - Betty Shine

Betty Shine died in April 2002 of heart failure, a bitter irony for a woman who had devoted much of her life to healing others and who not only spoke from the heart but acted from it, too. Having spent the last decade of her life committing her thoughts and tales of her incredible experiences to paper, producing 11 popular and often best-selling books, Betty had begun experimenting with a new outlet for her philosophy of life - writing poetry. Though she had written poetry for many years, it was only in her last year that professional record producers expressed interest in setting some to music and turning a number of these verses into lyrics. It seemed that the musical instincts Betty had honed as a professional opera singer were showing themselves quite unwittingly in the way she wrote poetry.
