Description of the story and my thoughts

There was a little boy named Azul who liked to play the piano and dreamed of becoming a pianist. One day, his teacher told him to perform in front of the audience.

 

However , his teacher said, "Your fingers move like a squirrel on the piano keys but there is something missing." Azul was told that he should play with his heart not his fingers. Azul felt nervous because he didn't know how to play with heart. 

Finally, he closed his eyes on the stage and feeling like a butterfly sat on his shoulder. His heart became to play Butterfly's song. He realized that he should put himself into the song not just play it. 

The best and most beautiful things in the world can not be seen or even touched, they must be felt with heart. Through this story, we learned that when doing anything, you must be with your full heart. On that way, you will realize the deeper meaning of the thing you did.
