"This miserable state..."


trying to make progress in my guitar playing
hired a highly recommended guitar teacher
here he is trying to get me to play the "b" chord
it's too hard for me
when i really need some relief and encouragement
i break out a little ozzie and listen to music made in heaven
no not that ozzie
ozzie kotani hawiian slack string guitar master
i especially like "ku u kika kahiko"  (my old guitar)

i get a hell of a lot of criticism for about every aspect of my life
of course i do  a lot of criticising also
i try to keep from being too distracted by all those who have condemned
me to roast in perdition and i found this description of the
 "stay in line and never talk back champions of mediocrity"
given by Dante
i don't want to only get half-way there

"This miserable state is borne by the wretched souls of those who lived without disgrace
and without praise." 
                                       Dante Alighieri-   "Inferno" referring to the souls of the futile

got to go
getting out of line
as much as i can
