What is your excuse ?

Mr Petrucciani , small in size , enormous , gigantic in courage , perseverance , passion and talent.

 If you are not familiar with this unique artist , he was born with osteogenesis imperfecta, which is a genetic disease that causes brittle bones and, in his case, short stature. It is also often linked to pulmonary ailments.

The disease caused his bones to fracture over 100 times before he reached adolescence and kept him in pain throughout his entire life.

 Do you think that would be fair enough for him to just blame the world for his problems ?

 His pianos were equipped with custom-built pedal extensions , and he frequently had to be carried to and from the piano bench because his bones were so fragile.

 He once said "I don't believe in genius , I believe in hard work"

 We wanted to honour him today and also give our readers a different approach of what success looks like in the face of the most seemingly impossible obstacles. What are your excuses ? Enjoy ... or should we say LISTEN
