Best Wishes & Have Fun on your Musical journey of Play!!!

Happy Birthday Ethan Hawke! (I'm in Awe and a wee bit in Love)

Thanks, Larry. So I’m not the only one in love/lust with Mr. Hawke? Not surprising. :-p

“I’m hungry, Sharon!” Oh, how I wouldn’t mind feeding that blue-eye beauty. :-)

Clint, I love: "Play is where curiosity lives. It’s loose, joyful, and full of discovery. Mastery, on the other hand, often brings structure, repetition, and the weight of expectation." Same for me. I "play" in a lot of areas but "master none" and that is OK with me. I am all about play! Fondly, Michael

I feel that. So many of my friends and colleagues are “specialists.” I prefer to be a “generalist.” I’m a Swiss Army knife of skills and interests. I may not be the sharpest blade in the drawer, but I will get the job done. :-p

"relearning how to play for the sake of play itself..."

Yes yes yes, THIS!

Such a great metaphor for life itself. Excited for you!

A mate of mine is into all types of musical instruments and currently is in a Ukulele group who play socially in pubs and other venues. Now me, as I've said before I haven't a musically bone in me 😵‍💫 Cheers DougT 🇫🇴🇬🇧

I had no idea how popular the instrument is around the world, especially the UK. I found several YouTube channels run by some of you countrymen (and women) that focus on ukulele. Miss Rachel Webley from Wales is one of my new favorites: https://www.youtube.com/@UkuleleWales
