What's Different Now?

We recently put Sullivan into piano lessons so I figured I would take lessons at the same time. It's been something on my bucket list for a while.

I did play instruments while I was growing up but I never took it seriously meaning I never really practiced. I would show up and play what I was suppose to but I was never committed.

So what makes it different now?

The difference is I WANT to do it. When I was younger I felt like I HAD to do it.

I want to be able to play for friends and family whether it's around the Christmas tree or around the camp fire. How cool would it be to have a special storage location in the Westfalia where I roll a keyboard out!? And then Sullivan pulls out his guitar!

Alright, I was a child once so I'm not counting on Sullivan being committed at this point in his life but it would be cool if he did.

In either case, I have found my WHY. I'm having fun and there's no pressure. I'm paying for it with my own money now so it's up to me whether or not I want to make the most of it.

Before I know it, I'll be playing the outdoor pianos around Manotick! Tickets will be free :)
