For the last 15 years I played an instrument and had lessons. The past few months I had health issues and decided to stop taking lesson and make a break playing my instrument. It was quite difficult to come to this decision for me and when I finished writing the note on email to the music school I felt like crying. Playing music and share the emotions with a music teacher is something special, especially when you know each other so well and for such a long time. Playing the instrument was always essential for me and I always went on playing no matter what was going on in my life. I guess my teacher knows me quite well because music shows your deepest feelings. When I saw my music teacher in person and told him into his face, that I am going to stop playing I could see the pain in his eyes. We had a normal lesson afterwards because I wished to go on like in a normal lesson. At the end once more the subject of stopping to play the instrument came up and my teacher made a remark about my character I could only agree. At the end we were shaking hands. When I looked into his face I remarked some wetness at the side of his nose (it was not a warm day and he didn't have a cold), so I guess it was a single tear escaping from his eye.
