(And even the songs I do learn well, I still feel like it’s 99%, not 100%, which drives me nuts).
Other kids practiced less than me and advanced much faster. Because they had aptitude and I didn’t.
Still I on and off persevered, as late as into my 40s.
But at sometime I finally accepted I suck at guitar.
So I’ve happily and proudly given up!  |
Ha! We should start a band.
