If I could change one thing about my childhood

Being a guitar player is every boy’s dream. Even though I am already 20 something, I still wish that I could play guitar well. However, I have never paid any attention to any music class when I was a kid. I can still remember a music teacher once asked me, “Music notes are simple. Why can’t you learn?” I kept silent because I did’t know the answer either. Maybe the twisted and complex music symbols were too repelling for me, or maybe I was just an unreasonable child.

Sometimes, I will imagine what my life would be if I took the music class seriously. I guess I would be very good at playing guitar and use it in my daily life. Because I am not a good story teller, I can use my guitar to express my emotions. When I am happy, sad or having indescirbable feelings, I can talk through my guitar; When I am on a date, I can play songs to my loved one under a starry sky with breezes blowing through our faces; When I have a baby, I can play lullabies to put her to sleep. She will sleep peacefully with a cute smile on her chubby face.

If I could be more patient in the music class, my life would be so much better. But past is already history. How can I focus on the present if I keep looking back? Therefore, I consider this regret as a lesson. It taught me to be open minded and never give up easily.
