You're still a youngin' although it might not feel that way. I read the article and she said something like "Life is hard but never give up" (paraphrased).

And you're more patient, more mellow, and more willing to do anything for fun because you're old enough that you no longer care what anyone else thinks. It's a certain freedom. At least, that's the difference between me at 25 vs. 45. 65 or 75 is gonna be legendary.

I am on r/guitar now and oh my god, so much info and so many questions! I'm having fun. The first song I want to play seems like it's wayyyy, wayyy too hard for me rn. My guitar delivery got delayed till Tuesday the 23rd so I'll wait and see, because I thought I'd be picking at it by now.

I want to be able to play Soothsayer before I die.

Wow that's pedal porn! 😮 I'm afraid I won't be good enough for those for a while yet, but I'll keep it in mind. I'm still trying to figure out getting an extension for my JBL headphones to go into the amp so I don't kill my neighbors

Thanks! I remember my fingers hurting, but now I rock climb, which also hurts your fingers (and hands, and arms, and feet) so I'm okay with this 🤘But as long as I can pick up the guitar and shred one day, it will be worth it! 🎸🎸🔥🔥 And yes, I'm on r/guitar but lurking at the moment.

Your user name! LOVE it. Maybe when I'm 65 I'll write a song in your honor 😉 and thanks!

Good to know! I turn 45 today, and am going to start up guitar (again, after 27 years of playing no music) on Monday.

Nahhh... life begins at 40. Or whenever you feel like you hit that balance of knowing yourself, earning for yourself to be comfortable, and living for yourself.
