My Guitar Story

My father taught me and my brother the basics of guitar playing while I'm still in Grade 3. I managed to play simple children's song in church like "I'm Free" and "This is the day". When I got older, I could play songs as long as I have the list of chords on top of the lyrics. For unknown reasons, I just stopped playing. I wonder why I didn't pursue my practice. We have acoustic guitars in church. We even have the kramer assault 220 electric guitar . There's no reason why I can't learn the guitar. Most of the Pastor's kids I knew learn all the musical instruments- bass guitar, drum, piano, trumpet, accordion, harmonica, and more. I concluded that I gave up learning because as the eldest of 14, rather spending my time on holding guitar, I prefer spending it on laundry, house cleaning, and study.

It's not yet too late for me to start learning guitar again. I still remember the chords. All I need to do is set aside time for practice so that before this year ends, I could play guitar with confidence. But wait, I don't have a guitar yet!
