There is no question that my first and strongest love is for my wife and my family..... B)
For fun though, I do have to admit that my love of playing guitar does get away from me from time to time. Usually at the expense of watching movies or playing board games with my wife and kids. I hear about it and then I stop for a bit. It seems I always gravitate back to the guitar playing though....
My wife is the one who pushed me into really giving guitar a go originally. She knew I had wanted to learn for a long time. I bought a guitar and ended up loving it. I then started buying more guitars and she had to get after me. "Don't you buy another guitar until you can play an entire song all the way through"... :silly: Well, thanks to lots of practice and a great website you might know about, I have several songs under my belt and my guitar collection has since grown. Almost embarrassingly so..... Like Tony, I have a wife who supports me 100% and actually believes in my level of playing more than i do...
Makes such a huge difference. So when it comes down to it, I couldn't love guitar as much as I do without her. For that I am truly thankful...
I have yet to trade a guitar for anything, but I did trade my freedom for a spectacular life with a beautiful woman a little over 15yrs ago..... :silly: :silly:
