Coming to a Close

               So last Friday I got my very own guitar! I decided on the Taylor GS Mini and couldn't be happier. I love playing it and it sounds much better than the one I've been using. It's also a good amount smaller than the other one so I can hold and play it much more comfortably. Here's a picture of it below!

                So it's been about 4 and a half months since I started learning guitar and overall I think it's gone really well. I was able to find a decent amount of time to practice despite being so busy, and I didn't give up or quit along the way. Daniel was a great mentor who I learned a lot from and I plan on staying in touch with him so he can continue to give me advice. I'm really happy with all of my progress and am planning to keep on playing even now that the project is over. The only thing I could have done a bit better would be practising even more than I did and my results would have been even better because of that.
                When I think of through-lines in regards to my passion project the first things to come to mind are definitely God-Worshipping and Creation-Enjoying. I love being able to not just sing-a-long to worship songs but also play them at the same time. It's awesome to get to worship God in such a way and use the talents he has given me. I also just love God's gift of music in general so getting to experience and create it with my guitar has been really great.
