This is the story of a young boy who lives with his elderly mother.

Basic quantifiers

She loved to play the piano and wanted him to learn because it brought her so much joy.

Past simple

When he agreed, she sent him to a local piano teacher every other evening.

At the same time, she walked him to his lessons.

But soon it became obvious that the boy wasn't doing too well.

A few weeks pass, and his mother continues taking him to class.

Even though the teacher has started to lose faith in the boy.

One day, the teacher was preparing some sheet music for the boy, and

when it was time to start the lesson, the boy didn't show.

A couple weeks pass, but the boy never comes back.

Sometime later, the piano teacher is the proud host of the town's yearly classical concert.

He sticks posters around town to attract guests to this special night of music.

It's not long until the young boy emerges, so seeing his teacher and one of the posters fixed to a nearby tree, he is filled with excitement.

He rips the poster down and chases after his teacher.

The boy wants to join so badly he starts to beg.

And finally, the teacher reluctantly agrees, deciding to let the boy play a small part to close the concert.

The next evening was time for the big event.

As the evening got underway, the teacher proudly invites the first act to the stage.

The night was going as planned, and it was soon time for the final act.

The young boy took to the stage after a nervous introduction by his teacher, and

the audience grew silent, eager for his performance.

The audience sat silent, amazed by the talent of this young boy.

As the boy finished, the audience erupted in a standing ovation.

He gave the best performance of the evening.

His teacher applauded with surprise and then asked, how did you learn to play so brilliantly?

The boy took a moment and then said, my mom loved to play the piano.

But when she got sick, there was no one to take me to my lessons anymore.

The teacher knelt beside the boy, and the audience listened in silence as he continued.

She was deaf before, so couldn't hear me play.

But I know she's listening now, and I only want to do my best for her.

At first, you may not be talented or gifted.

You may even be doubted by the people around you.

But if you have a strong enough, why, you will be able to achieve anything.
