The Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh

I've never forgotten about this painting since I first saw it during Sec 2 English lesson. I was so intrigued by his stories and there is just something mesmerizing about this painting. This is a view from the asylum he was in. For most of his life he struggled with insanity. I'm so awed by his brother's undying support throughout, especially at his many turning points. In fact, his brother was so affected by his death that he passed away soon after.

Ok. I'm just being very emotional. But some people's lives really wow and inspire, beyond reality.
