I’ve definitely not played guitar every day this year. But really, with my travel schedule, it’s just not possible. What I need to do, though, is play every day that I am home.
Starting now.
Fantastic little trip down memory lane. I really, really like this book, as it reminds me of my own journey down the path of the peaceful warrior in the early 1980’s. It reminded me of the way, and of my place in life. A good way to spend some airplane time.
