playing music as an adult

Hello ChandraNalaar To let you know how much of a muscian I am not, when I started to read this Discussion, I related it to playing the radio! I have always dreamed of playing a musical instrument, but lack the talent and discipline for it. As much as I may want to do it, I never gave it a priority. I still think about learning an instrument, but alas, refuse to make it a priority. However, I do still enjoy listening to different types of music. I encourage you to continue nurturing your music playing abilities.

If you intend to earn money by music, you will play hard, I believe. See those who are singing in streets cornors, are you amazed by the melody? They really play hard.But if you just take it as a hobby, you can forget it anytime. When need, they can be picken up again, of course. I couldn't sing well before and seldom played musical instruments because I didn't realize the sense for me. I didn't need it.But now I enjoy singing very much especially those light English songs to release pressure. I like playing piano as my fingers are long. I also try some flute playing because I like the voice. The similiar thing happening to yours is that I used to drawing devotedly and my works were admired by everyone at that time. But after Junior school I quit because of loss of interest and lack of time. Now, even if I want to draw again, I have no passion and can't draw well. So the truth is that if you need something, you will keep on doing it. You haven't played those instruments so long and just improve slowly as it's just your hobby, not a must.

Playing music is something you can do whenever you like. I took piano lessons as a child, and lacked confidence, and didn't do it very long. Now that I am an adult I want to get a piano. I want to play it like I never had before. I would like to relearn the basics, make complicated compositions, and maybe be even make a CD. Doing this is not practical right now, but, while I'm alive, this will be a dream of mind. Keep on having your dreams, and work toward making them reality. Your hobby is not pointless. It is a way of enjoying yourself and discovering your talent.

I have never been so much interested in playing musical instruments so I do not have any past story to share. I just wanted to encourage you not to give up in what you like. It does matter how old you, you can still go back and be as good as you were when you were younger. Just do not give up your dream.

We are created by our Creator in His image - which includes being musically inclined because He's the author of music. I was motivated to be involved in music playing some instruments but didn't find where the best area is. It's until I come to know about our Church's choir. I joined the choir and sometimes I'm the one playing the guitar. I admire you for being interested in music. I just hope and pray that you'll find a place to perform what you love through music. If I may suggest, it may be good to find a church where they have a music ministry. You are such a talent where you can play music for God's glory which is rewarded in heaven. Good day.

It's been almost a year since the last time I hold a guitar. When I was in my secondary education I was recruited in a band and became as their base guitarist. It happened to me twice so I have an overall total of 2 bands when I was in HS. In my 1st year in college I became as the lead guitarist of another band and performed in school activities but it reach to the point that I became very busy with my studies and find out that I have no more time to play. I want to play sometime soon. :)

music is my passion,, i've been playing guitar since 12, i practiced everyday, i have a dream that someday i'll be a rockstar,, but until now it doesn't happen,, but for me its okay, because I love it, im join a band have fun together,, play in some gigs,, for me thats not wasting my time, it makes my time more precious, and my dream will never die,,:)
