Response to Ji Hae’s Essay

Your essay is impressive and reminds me a lot. I have almost the same experience as yours. I have given up playing piano for more than eight years for my family’s move from one city to another. I remember that when I first time back to the keyboard two years after my last class in piano, I could still play an intact music fluently. I was shocked at that time and what shocked me more was that when I tried to played again by recalling the notes, I could hardly play anything! So just as the conclusion you drew from your essay, my finger remembered all the movements. And this conclusion enlighten me another idea that the past can only exist accurately on concrete material and so the past form into “memory” , but the past depended on pure consciousness will not be firm and can be incorrect.
