One Aspect Of One Self

Quick read, great story and writing.

Author captured one aspect of myself in this time of my
life and how playing piano is still a part of my life.

'I just want to play the piano, because playing the
piano is beautiful thing to do' and it goes on.
'I played ( insert any song here ) over and over the
other evening...but each time I played it, it moved
me more and more and I played it better and better...
I felt I was transfigured or something. And that's when
 I thought, this is what I want - to be moved by my own playing, but not have 
to be on a stage and move a thousand other people.

The highlighted text in red, along with the text in black was copied from the 
book which sums it up perfectly. 

Twice in my life I had received a standing ovation for a piano performance. 
Neither was to be expected nor easily given. First was when I was a young teen
and the second as a young adult. First with an audience of over two hundered 
and the second with a an audience of nearly seven hundred. First was a copy
written song , second was a song composed by myself.

Neither can compare what the imagination can ponder when immersed in this
process of playing and creating.
