and time into yet the more you put in the more joy you receive in
return. There are few things in my life that I have a true passion
for: my family, my Savior Jesus Christ, and playing guitar. All of
life's passions should be shared with others.
When ever I can I try to put the passion I have for playing guitar in
others. If I learn of a friend or co-worker that has stopped playing I
try to entice them to start playing again, offering to help them buy a new
guitar or to get together and play. I have often given a few beginner
lessons to someone that has just purchased a guitar, hoping that what little
I may teach them in the short time we meet that they can learn enough to
play and learn for a lifetime.
(Doc Watson and Clarence Greene sharing their
passion on the streets in the 1950's)
Finding a new song or a new friend that plays always makes me want
to play more and work harder to be better. Get back to it,
find a new song or stop by your favorite guitar shop, even passions
need rekindled every once in a while.
