the love of music

the first instrument i fell in love with was the piano. i could play it for hours every day. not practice mind you. but playing. playing whatever i felt like playing. it was my escape. somewhere along the way, whatever need i had to play, i must've gotten out of my system because i haven't played the piano in a long time. now, it's enough to listen to my daughter play the piano. and seeing the joy she experiences becomes my joy somehow. odd how that works like that.
