I haven't posted here for nearly two years but I haven't forgotten about this blog.
I just thought I would stop in and let whoever may read this know that for the last couple of months, I've been trying to pick up the guitar every day and play it for a little while. It usually amounts to me playing around with different chord progressions until I find something that strikes me.
I find it soothing just to noodle around a bit. Sometimes I do try to sound out songs I'd like to learn to play or search up the chords and work on those a bit.
I'm not sure that I'll ever really learn to play properly. I seem to get bored too quickly. For instance, learning and playing a couple of measure of a song and then switching over to another song right in the middle, sort of medley style and then it quickly devolves into me just messing around to see what unique sounds I can get out of the strings. Still, as I wrote above, I find it soothing and relaxing just to pick it up, feel the strings under my fingers and create sounds that spark my spirit.
I went for quite a while, not picking up the guitar because I just felt melancholy to even think of playing it. I'm glad that has passed for the most part.
I'll try to get back here more often.
Cheers!
