My Story

When I was a child, my parents asked me which instrument would you like to play, I have no idea but just answered piano. So I began to play the piano when I was 4 years old.

In my memory, the piano is too heavy that it is hard for the workers to carry it into my home which is on the fourth floor, and its black and white keyboard is so special that I would like to touch it. So from then on, I had to play the piano every day, and practised the piece of music which my professor left for me as homework. At the end of the week, I should go to school let my professor check my work. It could be boring when you just practise the same piece of music once and once again. My mother always company with me, every Saturday or Sunday we went to school to attend the class, no matter how terrible the weather will be, hot summer day or chilly winter day. We just went through thick –and –thin. Maybe I was too young to understand the difficulties my mother went through, but the love she gave me will always in my mind and will last long.

My mother had a note book or maybe a diary book, she wrote down my weak points in practice and wrote down every detail in daily life. What she did when she asked me to practise and I said no, and what she thought when the professor said I made a progress.

When I grow up, I read the memory in my mother’s mind, tears full in my eyes. The love my mother gave to me, I will never payback.

Now, the piano in my room has a long history of 16 years, but now I just could remember a few pieces of music I used to play. When I was in middle school and high school I even not touch the piano, but now I still have the memory of those days I used my heart on the piano. When I sit in front of the piano, I just thought of my mother’s face and her expectation on me. I hope I never let her down.

Maybe I am not a good player or as good as others, but I am the happiest and I can see the happy smile on my parents’ face. I think they are the best parents in the world. They give me the best education. I love them forever and I will try my best and promise I can do better and never let them down.
