I am humbled to have the opportunity to have a piano to play. After I play for a while, I go for a walk down by the river to get some fresh air and enjoy the beauty of life. And then back to the piano because I am missing the sounds of the piano Lovely post Michael- you have such a way with words, almost poetical. I could imagine you writing poems or fiction.

Tararex Full Member Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 498 Middle Georgia, USA	Originally Posted by adultpianist It is good to be enthusiastic but to think about it day and night is an obsession. I come from a family where we have addictive behaviour and it destroyed a lot of good things. To be over obsessive is not good. In fact it is a bit creepy. ...to think about it day and night... Sounds like the definition of love, of which obsession is an important component. Good things are not destructive. I live among passive aggressive dullards who make it a point to destroy or belittle beautiful things. They're not permitted to touch my piano. It's my precious. Piano is hard work from beginning to forever.

Music is my best friend.
