Re: QOTD: Thursday, February 23rd

I'm not sure how to answer this. I once played my guitar very well. I put it away for several years always thinking I should keep playing than I'm always busy, so I neglected it. Then, last fall I decided no more. I put new strings on it downloaded a guitar tuner to my kindle seasoned and tuned the new strings and started playing scales again. Now, I am back to playing tunes and enjoying the music. Fretting can be difficult for me because My fingers are short and my hands small. My first instructor showed me how I can compensate for this small problem, and I have to keep my nails on my left hand cut to nothing. I play Classical guitar only for my own pleasure. I don't think I've literally learned anything new in the last year but, I sometimes have to pull out old brain knowledge dust it off and update it. I had a tutor in 1998 who tutored me in math for my entry into college. She told me no one ever loses what they learned. A science look at the situation says you still have those brain cells in storage just are not quick to be used if you have not used them for a while.

As for the guitar situation I never consciously committed some of my tunes to my memory so I'm working on one now. I'm surprised how well my learning curve is working in that direction.
