The benefits of playing guitar go far beyond the pleasure of a great hobby. The first time that you pick up a guitar you get a sense of power. Not anything superhuman just yet, but you get the feel of the potential in yourself when play your first sounds. You find determination, patience and a sense of challenge that empowers you to strive for the best. You learn how to succeed as you build your skills and knowledge base. Humility takes on the experience of creativity. You have a vast arena to express your emotions from happiness to the blues, to triumph and wonder. Whether you are learning your favorite songs or you are writing original tunes, you are exploring the guitar and the art, language and science of music. You can also indulge in the occasional self indulgent, bombastic, volcanic solo. Your music can laugh, cry, build and release tension and tell great stories. Play guitar (or any other instrument) and light up a corner of your life. Good luck! read less
