what to do....

so update on my life... i have recently rediscovered a song that i have missed terribly but didn't realize it until i discovered it. ill have to tell you the story. i was amid the struggles of studying and wanted to get a break. so i went to the CAC to play on the practice pianos there cause i have recently rediscovered how much i love playing the piano. it really really calms my soul. so back to the story. i went over to play and after going through the two songs that i have to play i was still not feeling the calming that i needed. i decided to try and remember the feather song from forrest gump and maybe i would feel that calming feeling and i could get back to work. so as i start to try and play from memory i am having the hardest time being able to remember the sections of the song and for some reason its not sounding like the song that i was thinking. and yet my fingers are playing something that they know and all the while i am starting to try and figure out what it is that my fingers remember but my brain cannot seems to be able to put a name to this song. as i continue to piece together this mystery song, BANG it hits me. ITS CRISOFORI'S DREAM! one of the greatest songs that my brother had me get when i was still in high school. i remember when i learned it and how fun it was and how much i loved it and how much it gives me the greatest feeling of peace in my heart. so because i hadn't played it in forever i couldn't remember all the sections so immediately after playing it and feeling pretty good peace, decided that i needed to find the sheet music so i googled it, found it, and have played it almost everyday since and my heart feels so much better and i love it. so my rediscovery have been one of the greatest blessing in my life and has become one of my greatest passions.
