God picks up the reed flute world and blows.
Each note is a need coming through one of us,
a passion, a longing-pain.
Remember the lips
where the wind-breath originated,
and let your note be clear.
Don't try to end it.
Be your note.
-- Jalalludin Rumi

You just have to keep following your dream, Helene -- the rest will fall into place.

Funny you should mention flutes...I have sore lips and an thumb from trying to get any sound from the baroque flute I've just received and for the moment it's far from gracious ;-)

You are so right, KV, it IS all about dreams, and not forgetting them...
Well, Stellou, believe it or not, I hadn't thought about that connection, although it is so obvious ! Er, I guess, we can't always be a gracious note, but if we enjoy whatever note we are, then it's ok lol !
