I try. I really do. But it don't come easy...at least not to me. First I put on some music that I enjoy...usually something by the Allman Brothers, Clapton or the blues by Stevie Ray or Buddy Guy. It inspires me to try again. So I pick the guitar that Jo gave me for my 40th birthday. I put it in my lap and ....sigh....I cant play a note. My fingers know where to go but they are so short and stubby that they cant reach. My hands aren't as nimble as they were before a certain accident many years ago and age hasn't help them either. Excuses,excuses..."just play" I think to myself. Now it is becoming a job... ..damm those fingers why don't they move. I watch some instruction videos and I cant even figure what fret they want me to be on let alone stretch my fingers into the position... more frustration. When I do get "warmed up" what does come from the guitar doesn't sound like music. Dammmm...I put down my old ax (that is slang for a guitar...all of us musicians know that...lol,)  and put on my ipod and play as loud as possible the opening guitar licks from the song Sweet Jane by Lou Reed, with Dick Wagner on guitar....now that is what a guitar should sound like and I'm back to loving music again.
