Can a piano be invisible?

A friend of mine told me that her husband had bought her a piano for Christmas a few years back. He wanted to surprise her, so on a pretense he asked her to check on something in the house while he was at work, and to keep him on the phone while she did it.

The piano had a big bow on it. She walked right by never noticing it on her mission to check on things in the kitchen for her husband.

Still on the phone with him, she reported everything looked good. He seemed not to buy it and asked if she’d check around the rest of the house and make sure everything was okay. She complied and walked by the piano again without seeing it.

She then reassured him all was well and he again sounded unconvinced.

“Are you sure,” he prompted, “Nothing new anywhere?”

Now, she became suspicious. “You’re being weird,” she said and wanted to know what was going on?

That’s when he told her about the piano. She was thrilled, of course, and certainly surprised by his thoughtful gift as she loved to play, but she was also stunned that she hadn’t noticed it as she’d walked by it several times.

My friend is pretty observant, so I can imagine her surprised reaction to not seeing a piano with a huge bow on it in the first place. If her husband hadn’t told her, she would’ve locked up the house and for her, it would be like the piano did not exist at all.

Though it did.

In reality. In plain sight.

So, what happened? Why couldn’t she see the piano until it was pointed out?

She couldn’t because her belief was so strong in what the house looked like and everything it contained, that her belief overrode actual reality. For her, the piano simply was not there.

We are all like this. We all have such strong beliefs about everything that there’s no room for reality. We think we see, but we don’t. We only see what we think we see. We’ve given up true vision for our thought attachments. We can’t see what we won’t let ourselves see.

Now imagine there’s 8 billion of us doing this—thinking we see but we don’t. Not everything. Not fully. And we are meant to play in this way. It’s part of the divine design. Because how fun is it to let go of a belief attachment and discover something richer, deeper, more meaningful appear right before your eyes. Once seen, you can’t unsee it.

Like a piano.

This week, I invite you to find some grace within yourself for what you might not be seeing that truly is in plain sight. As best you can, try to let go of the need to be right, or to hang on so tightly to what may be a thought attachment and not reality. Ask yourself if you feel the need to defend or convince in order to keep your belief. If so, let go and see what happens.

And let go if you can, of the need to believe your reality is more accurate than someone else’s. We are all playing through our imaginations.
