Shredded Piano

Awwwwww, I was in so much pain watching this 1:38 video.
The shredded piano reminded me of the very first piano I owned when I was 6 years-old. It was passed down to me from my grandmother. My grandmother absolutely loved it, partly because my grandfather bought it for her after he came home from being forced to be away from her and the family for more than 10 years. It was a gift filled with my grandfather’s love and passion for music. (He self-taught himself violin and music theory).
So when she gave it to me as a gift, she stayed with my family and took very good care of it. (My grandfather passed away only a few years after the family’s reunion). She went crazy every time a scratch embedded itself onto the surface of the piano. It was an ancient piece of work, and often out of tune too. But I loved it. It was one of the best memories of my childhood, I can’t even imagine my life right now without having had it. It stayed with me for more than 4 years before it had to be replaced.
That’s the story of my first piano. I know at some point, its life will end. But I sure hope it didn’t end like THIS one…
*Shudders*
Let’s protect our beloved instruments shall we?
