Just weeks before her death, Tina Turner revealed what she believed was the secret to living a "life well-lived."
While speaking with British Vogue for an interview published on April 17, the "What's Love Got to Do With It" singer was asked her secret for living a life well-lived–a notion she questioned, "What does 'well-lived' mean?" before she seemed to have found the answer in her own words.
"My life has been full, but with lots of sad times that I now forgive and strive to forget," Turner said, adding, "Maybe that’s the answer: to keep moving forward, to let go, and aim to fill your life with love. That is where I am now, and I am grateful."
The singer also shared the advice she would give her younger self: "I would tell myself to stay strong and continue wanting more and fighting for it all! It will come, and it will be worth the wait!"
