Use the talents you possess – lessons learned while playing Guitar
An anonymous quote I saw the other day said, “Use the talents you possess, for the woods would be silent if no bird sang except the best.” This struck me because I have picked up my classical guitar after 20 years of not touching it, and I am enjoying it immensely. I…
