A Note from the Composer:
​I originally wrote this piece for a friend (who would like to stay anonymous) back in high school, who was struggling with what they wanted to do in life. They had always thought practically and wanted to please their parents and everyone else, but never thought about what they wanted. One day we stopped and instead of talking about the future, we talked about dreams. We went on for hours, starting off with a little dream, growing it out into a path that they could follow in life and call their own, and most importantly, be happy with. This friend was a pianist, so I wrote them a short piece trying to encapsulate this small idea, transforming it into something bigger and something more; a short piece they could come back to at any point and remember that big things in life start out small.
