neighbors

So i just got back from my lesson not too long ago..already ran over the songs a couple times. I had a good chat with my teacher though, he talked all about talent and acknowledgement and about how we can live just two houses away from the most extraordinary people and be entirely oblivious to the fact. It's an upsetting thought for many reasons. If not for shame in the fact that you havent taken the incentive to really and truly understand those people who share you neighborhood, and more on...a piece of your life...then for the fact that you are missing out on what could be the most clarifying or memorable experiences you have. Or perhaps you wont like what you learn and youll shy away from the thought of returning...either way it would have been an adventure to not only you, but the people teaching and learning from you.
