My cousin is getting married this year, and the family is very lively. During the dinner table conversation about buying a house, I couldn't help but think of my piano teacher.
She taught piano in her old house for twenty years, and ultimately chose to exchange the money she saved for a house to buy a Steinway piano.
She believes that a house confines people, but music can take people to a farther place.
Her approach enlightened me: we always equate possession with security, but true sense of security comes from the ability to choose. Her value is embodied in the piano keys, not locked
