So I was in the car, stuck in traffic, so I decided to write. I’m pretty awful at writing, but opinions are appreciated.
It sounds sorta life a preface to a book or something, so if it was, would you want to read the book??
Any suggestions of how to make it better?
“I think there’s something each person is destined to do, be it painting or inventing, designing or healing. Only a fortunate few are able to find their calling. It seems that I have already found my passion at a young age – music. Performing or practicing, I love all aspects of music. The hours of playing the same phrase until that c-sharp is consistently heard; looking for the hidden beauty in each note. All the time and energy that is poured into a piece is so rewarding when the lights are shining, all sounds cease, hundreds of eyes and ears are focused entirely on you, waiting. Your heart is beating fast; you feel the warmth of the stage lights on your face. You check that the bench is in the correct position, and you know that you are ready. You place your hands on the gleaming keys, and as the first sounds fill the hall, you enter another world.
Welcome to the world of music.”
Sunshine – thanks for you great comments! As I said, I wrote this while bored in the car, haha – I definitely want to work with it a little more – I just listed four occupations that popped into my mind – I definitely will change a couple of them, at least, add a little more variety.
I had trouble wording the sentence about the “only a fortunate few” – I do see that it can be understood as being derogatory, which is not what I wanted – I was trying to portray that I feel fortunate to have such a passion for piano. I will work with that.
Thanks again for your comments!
