This week @LadiesofHive has yet another 2 interesting questions in their weekly [Contest-Ladies of Hive Community Contest #109](https://hive.blog/hive-124452/@ladiesofhive/ladies-of-hive-community-contest-109)
1️⃣ What is your favorite musical instrument and why? Do you know how to play it? If not, do you think there are limits to learning to play it?
And / Or
2️⃣ Death is an unusual topic of conversation, but remembering death makes us appreciate life. If this were your last birthday, how would you like to celebrate it and why?

I would like to answer both of them. Today I will go with the first one.

I have always been in love with music but never been drawn to any particular instrument as such till some years ago. Everything was almost the same for me. I never had any inclination also to learn any instrument in particular. It all started some years back, around 10 years. I was attending a group Meditation and there they had a Piano music playing in the background during the Meditation. While I was listening to those sounds I felt like I was being transported to another world. It was a very blissful moment for me. I was so lost in that sound and suddenly I had some visions. I was feeling something very different, very ecstatic, something that I had never experienced in any session previously.  I discussed it with the leader that time and she said you dived very deeply into it and hence those feelings.

Some days went by and I never felt the same again while meditating, then one day I decided to play  piano music of that meditation and again there I was flowing into it and then I did it often and I felt some very strong connection in that music. I kept getting lot of visions during the session. I realized that it was the Piano music that was doing the magic and I was feeling very good every time I heard it in isolation just the piano tune. I could feel that there was some connection.

I was trying to think why this particular instrument and then it came to my mind, when I was very young I had started learning Piano. I had learned just the basics and then left it. Possibly that was one connection, may be a deep desire somewhere stored within to learn which surfaced up. The other instrument that gives me a kick is the Drum, that also takes me on a high but not exactly the same effect of the Piano

I decided to learn Piano, but somehow I have still not been able to get on to it. But I do want to and probably in the near future I will learn it. I do not think so it is difficult for me and I have some memory of what I learned in my childhood days so possibly it will come up fast. I have some friends who teach so that will be not be very difficult for me. 

This question also gives me a nudge that in a long time I have not done a Piano music Meditation, nowadays I just sit without any music or guided meditation or any other sound or an Aum chanting and I feel good with that. But I feel today that I should do the Music meditation. 

That's my story of my favorite instrument.
