Comptine d'un Autre été: L'Après-Midi

For those who care:
I have always wanted to be good at the piano. Although my family is not low income, we definitely could not afford piano lessons (or any music lessons, sports, etc, for that matter), much less a piano, while I was growing up. We eventually got our hands on this piano through someone in our area who was giving it away for free as they were moving and did not really play it.
In freshman year of high school, I tried to teach myself piano, but to little success - I could only learn a couple songs and I still to this day struggle to get much better. I plan to take lessons when I am older when I hopefully have some sort of job.
Needless to say, I felt disappointed in myself for not being able to get much better over these years. I feel that way about most of my hobbies, activities, studies, etc - I always find myself pursuing things so late. It's always, "I wish I had started this hobby sooner", or "I wish I had the means to do this hobby sooner" - I find myself constantly grieving the things I either could not, or chose not to pursue.
Time passes so quickly, I wish I had all the time in the world. I would learn every instrument, listen to every piece of music, study every discipline, and talk to every person I could. There are just so many fascinating things to do and to experience and I feel this deep sadness that I can not do it all.
However, I think that 14 year old me would be proud of where I am now, not just as a mediocre piano player but as a person. For what it's worth; it's never too late to be who you want to be, or do what you want to do. I want to live a life that I am proud of, after all.

This is so good!!! It's amazing you aren't giving up on this dream. In the fast part the switch between the second and third time is always hard iykwim, instead of playing both D's with your index finger you can play the second time with your middle finger to make the transition sound smoother. Keep up the good work!
