Last 2007, I published a blog about my childhood and how I learned to play the Piano. I happened to view David Sides' video at you tube while playing the piano. I can't help but go back to the days when I was just a kid. I was barely 6 years old when I started learning how to play the Piano. Every Sunday, my piano teacher whom I fondly called Ate Grace would always go to our house to teach me new pieces. She used to live in Forbes in Sampaloc. I clearly remember my Mom paying her P50 per piano session. She taught me from 6 years old till I was 10.
18 years have past. The White Wagner Grand Piano that we use every Sunday is now gone. I wonder where Ate Grace is right now and how she is doing. I don't even know her surname. We don't even have a single picture together and I can barely remember her face. Just the sound of her Ballade Pour Adeleine. Maybe if she sees me now and how I turned out to be, she will be very happy. If I see her, I will surely be very excited and hug her tight cause it is her whom I truly miss whenever I hear a piano being played Gracefully.
