A Dream I'm Yet to Start: Learning the keyboard #282.
Good day, people of Hive! Welcome to my blog. Today's topic is from Ladies Of Hive. So let's dive in.
Honestly, there's one thing I really wish I could do just for fun, and that is playing the keyboard. Anytime I see someone playing it, I just stop and watch. I have a cousin sister who is good at playing the keyboard. If she plays for you, you will definitely have the urge to learn because she’s really good at it. I once asked her to teach me how to play, but I couldn’t get it, and it pained me.
Whenever I hear the sound of the keyboard, it always makes a happy smile appear on my face because the sound is beautiful.
What I really like about the keyboard is how it can express feelings. Whenever I see someone playing it, I always feel this happiness inside me. If someone is playing, I won’t even know when I start singing and dancing along. I really like the idea of knowing how to play it—just sitting down and playing, especially on days when I don’t even have the right words to express myself.
But honestly, I haven’t been able to adopt this hobby in my free time. One major reason is that learning an instrument takes a lot of patience and consistency. It’s not something you just pick up once and become good at. You have to keep practicing again and again until you become good at it, and sometimes it can be frustrating, especially when you’re unable to get the keys right. Right now, my schedule is already filled with schoolwork, assignments, exams, project work, and other things, so it’s hard for me to dedicate that kind of time.
Another reason is having access to a keyboard. And even if I get access to one, I would still need someone to teach or guide me on how to play. If I try to do it alone, it can be a little confusing, especially when I don’t even know where to start from.
There’s also this fear that has been holding me back from learning it. As we all know, starting something new can be scary or difficult. Sometimes I always think, what if I start keyboard lessons and then stop halfway due to some circumstances, because we can’t predict the future. So instead of looking for someone to teach me, I just admire people who play and always appreciate them for playing so well.
In conclusion, the urge to learn the keyboard is still in me, and I hope that one day I’ll be able to try it out. Even if I won’t be perfect or play outside, just being able to play for myself and make myself happy would be enough. And I feel like that alone would make me happy.
