I was called ‘talented’ but never actually really began.

spoiler

To be honest I hated the kiddie songs for beginners and was being placed under unreasonable expectations by adults who either wanted to live their failed dreams through me or have a show pony that did tricks. The pressure killed my desire and the boring fundamentals work did the rest. Also I had way too much else on my plate like survival. The same things are true now with the ukulele. No idea where it is.

But I was and am very tired and distractable so it’s just easier and less revealing to call it lazy.
