[QUOTE="cappers, post: 575038, member: 9742"] :blush: I'm flattered! Being able to play music no matter how well, on an instrument I love, fulfils a deep and hitherto unrecognised need. I have had a happy life, lovely close family, an interesting and enjoyable career, travelled to many amazing places, had some profound experiences but nothing beats the joy and satisfaction I get learning to play. For me it's meditative, totally in the moment, no mental chatter, peace. Also, learning to play, read music, study theory, work with others has been beneficial for my physical and mental health. My lung health and capacity seems to have improved, my mind is kept busy and working, I sleep better and I'm having the time of my life! Thank you all for your support and encouragement :thumb: [/QUOTE]
