Before performing, my teacher/mentor in Cleveland once told me to 'Play with love.' Those three words stuck with me and have guided me ever since - through performances and auditions to friendships and relationships.
It is important to play music with love, but the phrase also applies to life as a whole; it is vital that everything you do is from your heart.
I put the tattoo on the outside of my wrist, where the words can always be there to remind me, whether I'm about to play the flute, write an essay, or shake someone's hand.
Play with love.
(Thank you, Mr. Smith.)

Great tat.....Did it hurt?
To be honest some days I'm more afraid of getting my IM tat than I am of the actual race.
Awwww... I really like that.
Very nice saying to see daily...hourly...minute-ly!
Did it hurt 'cause the wrist seems like a sensitive place..
