I Want to Be Better
Today I was practicing piano. Suddenly my brother asked me when I was gonna be done practicing. He didn't want do anything with me or something. He was tired of listening to me practice.
I didn't say anything, but hearing him say that kinda hurt in a way I didn't expect. Being subtly asked to stop playing made me realize how much I it love when other people are amazed by and appreciate my music. Sure, I was just practicing, but I still couldn't help but feel a little down about it.
After some thought, I realized that more than anything, I want to get better at piano. I don't wanna be subtly asked to stop. So, I'll practice even more. I want to prove that what I do matters, even if the truth is I'm only really justifying it for myself.
