"To me, music that breaks your heart is the music that stays with you
forever. It's one thing to be melancholy and one thing to be sophisticated,
but when you get the two of them together in a way people can relate to,
then I think you're on to something. You want the sophistication to lie in
the purity of the sound, the beauty of the arrangements, and the quality of
the performances."-Trumpeter Chris Botti

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Picture Descriptions
Hi everyone!
I'm here to "sing in the choir", (smile).
I have to say I love those picture descriptions to as others do. It's not
an easy thing to do, I have heard people say, and the volunteers who have
the eyes to see pictures painstakingly give such vivid descriptions that I
feel like I'm there with the characters when I read them. They are real
gems in these books that wouldn't be nearly as rich without them.
When I was in school, the word "omitted" in my braille book became a
"dirty word" to me, because I always wondered what I was missing by the
omission, though I understood that it was not technically possible to
include whatever it was that had to be omitted.

Enjoy what you have rather than desiring what you don't have. Just
dreaming about nice things is meaningless; it is like chasing the
wind.--Ecclesiastes 6:9 NLT
