when I was a child

I don't know if it is a good name for the topic it is about what I was thinking today

last night my neighbor called me and asked me if I can give her daughter a lesson how to understand timing in notation.
then today all the day I traveled back on time and think about myself and my bad history with music.

When I was in my first classes at the school.. I was not bad keyboard player...so my smart teacher told me it is better for you to play PIANO... the first time I play piano he told me to play what I've known.... there was no piano at our home that time (still don't have) so the first time I see piano keys how large many and heavy it is.so I couldn't play will then the teacher shouted why you can't play try again then I couldn't too then he shouted again then I left the class and ran crying

(how sensitive I was)

then the next day the teacher aplogise and asked me to comeback to class.. I didn't accept his aplogise... after that I had nothing with the music till I became 18 and decided to play guitar...

today I asked my self what if I was playing guitar when I was a child what guitarist am I now ???

going to the girl to lern her a method to understand timing by the way she plays Arabian lute. her technic is not bad in this age... she has a good right hand control.... but toooo bad timing...

I tryed tooo much to give her a simple method.... hardly she got something to apply with her music.but she was not intrested in learning.

I rememberd a topic I read it here in foro a member noticed that the children don't much intrested in what they are playing, but thier parents like them to play music...

at the end.....

what the f***en choices that we hardly can chose when we were children...
can we chose it now? and can I do it now as good as if I was started early?

just wondring ....
