I suppose, what this thread might have in common to all of us, is that it makes you sorry.
After all it feels as if someone like you is giving up on a racy senorita whose sweetness turned out to be femme fatal´s medusa. The unveiling of a bogeyman´s potential threat smoldering deep in our hearts. Potentially threatening even to highly advanced players.
In view of advanced musicians who gave up playing, I used to think that they might have never been passionate to begin with. Maybe lurked in by unrelated images of making music, like giving colour to oneself, freeing from geek being, meeting chicks, etc.

Hi Ruphus,
I hope you dont mind I've shortend your stort a little bit. 
To be honest, I dont feel sorry at all. The one thing I do feel sorry for, is not listening to my innerself.
Instead of letting loose I started to develop some obsessive compulsive behaviour, more, more and more...anf feeling worse and worse about it.
...and I feel sorry still not having quit smoking

How's your negra doin? Is she allready wispering in your ear?
There are people who are born, grow and age in one place, you might not even know the nearest town, but there are also people in their lives have stopped in many cities, sometimes in several countries. There are events in life that can not be stopped and they do not seem clear in the beginning,but over the time you realize that they are a great stone "bridge" between you and your happiness.
I am sure that this departure in India for you, will be one of these stones.
As for the music, it does not matter which one likes flamenco, or some other style .... what matters is "to feel the emotions" and music as art in general "need" this too, maybe primarily. The art is nothing more than "decoration" of the stone used to make the most beautiful bridge!
... my "precious negrita" is something out of the ordinary, just a year old has a "voice" as "colored" that more than the ears, enchants the heart. In particular when I play, for example, granaina, tientos or malaguena...I get "goose bumps." :-)
I am convinced that in Anders's guitars, as in many things still made by expert and sensitive hands, remains imprinted the personality of the manufacturer and this is another feature of the work of Art, a characteristic that no amount of money can buy .
ciao, :-)
