In my last post I mentioned my back causing me issues and keeping me from practicing. It has gotten somewhat better but it is still bothering me. However, even though it still tweaks as times I have been practicing some. I came across a helpful video from LicknRiff that is helping connect the chord progression along with connecting riffs. That is exactly what I have been wanting – to be able to hear it so I can make up my own songs. His video has been very helpful.
Life can be very irritating at times, as we all know, with all complications it brings. Sitting here now writing this blog my back is bothering me some. It can be very frustrating when distractions come along and veer us away from our goals. That is life though, there is actually very little that is in our control. True, my back hurting is not helped my decisions I make such as mowing the lawn, watering the garden, cooking or cleaning, even my choice to spend a few minutes writing this blog. However, these are items I must do if I want to keep the life I choose (good food and a decently kept house).
So what is it I am trying to say? Nothing more than what you already know – life gets in the way at times. It has obstacles and sometimes seems like it purposefully creates obstacles just for us. The question is not if you are going to have obstacles or even what those obstacles are going to be. No, the question is how are we going to react to them? Do we give in to them? Do we look to overcome them? Do we entertain them for a while? Do just continue on in spite of them? These are questions we need to ask ourselves whenever those obstacles come along. Knowing your answer will help you know more about yourself and what you value.
The conversation about knowing yourself, knowing your reactions and learning how to deal with situations is more than can be covered in one blog. After this Spanish guitar challenge we will take a deeper looking into dealing with frustrating circumstances. Until then keep pursuing your passions and interests.
