> > Why is music so hard. It is never right.
> My life will be a constant race for an unattainable goal.It sounds like you are very frusterated, I forgot what instument you play, but I am going through something like this too. I am wondering if I should have started to play again, will I be able to obtain what I didn't earlier in my life. But I also get upset when I can't play what I used to play so easily. I practice several hours a day now, and sometimes you can't tell. Sometimes I feel like I really suck.
It seems to me that playing music or writing music, that you can always do better. But yet every musician stives for perfection, (especially , classical players).
Now that I have started to play again, I have realized that I NEED to play, I am happier when I am playing, it is what I was meant to be.
But yes, I get frusterated all the time.
Is there anyway you could take some time off?
Then you can restart with some freshness? I don't know if I am making any sense at all, I just want to help. I think this is why musicians are (what my T says) characters! LOL> And yet I can't leave it.
