Reflection
May 18, 2008 by Sandy
Recently I attended a conference where a friend of mine was the keynote speaker. My friend Karly is “non-verbal” which simply means she cannot speak with her mouth. Do not let the fact that she is non-verbal fool you into thinking that she has nothing to say. This woman has plenty of great things to say, not only in words, but she also composes beautiful music. She works with a musical therepist named Karen who works very hard to make sure that what is composed is exactly what Karly wants. At this conference we were able to hear all the music Karly has composed with Karen playing the piano. This photo to me embodies the realtionship between Karly and Karen. Karen makes sure that what we here is an exact reflection of what Karly wants us to hear. They are an amazing team!

Wonderful. I never heard about nonverbal communication through music before. It sounds beautiful and you did an awesome job capturing it.
Karly is certainly inspirational! I’m so glad you got her started on WordPress!
Thanks Sandy for your kind words. I love that photo too. I had a great time at the conference too. It brings me such joy to have others pleased with what they hear in my songs.
Love, Karly
