Some words that slipped out I put to images and music...

This is a worthy 6-minute video where a young 12/13 year old girl (back in 1992) told the UN adults what the children of the world thought of them. A most memorable telling off.

These images were taken of the Istanbul Mevlevi group of which I once was a part of.

It was the only Turkish Mevlevi group to use women semazens (whirlers).

The sheikh would ask each female semazen what colour she had in her heart:

the answer was turned into the colour of her khirkr (robe).

These are the colours you see in the video.
