two finger pianist

Today's blog shows a video about a Korean pianist who stands around 1 meter tall, and only has 2 fingers. I was really shocked when I saw her hands and legs, and how she's still able to play piano like that. I think by her disability, and her desire to play, they complimented her to push further, unlike us who have nothing wrong with our learning abilities, and get bored because it's too easy, for her it was a challenge and that probably kept her going, so she could prove against the odds that were put against her. It was probably hard growing up for her, it's hard enough that a kid with glasses and a hat that looks kind of gay, is pushed around. It was probably really hard for her to start off, I wonder why she chose one of the instruments that require one of the fastest finger movements, maybe it challenged her who knows? I think we should look at this and consider how lucky we are, and maybe stop being so lazy in learning new things.
