Unplayed Piano

I wish I had continued with piano lessons. I took lessons for about 7 years. I still hear the music, but I can no longer play the notes. At least not the complex ones... Sometimes when I hear a well played song, I miss sitting at the bench and feeling the ivory under my finger tips. Its as if music would just flow from the body. My teacher said I had a natural talent. I would put my own twist on pieces like it had never been heard before. I could even play songs by ear. Actually, I still can... Nonetheless, the piano that my parents bought me so many years ago is now collecting dust and being use as decoration in the dining room.

I am not saying this to reminisce or even brag about my skills. It just brought me to the realization that if you don't use it, you lose it. If you don't appreciate things, use them or take care of them, you will lose them. They will fade away. You won't even realize it and the dust will be collecting on the piano and the music will be just distant memories.

So what are you not using in your life today?
