I am a big fan of daily habits. In case you hadn’t noticed.

But sometimes I’m forced to be without, for instance, my guitar for a while.

In the case of the guitar, I actually think a little break does my playing good. It allows everything to settle. The muscle memory I’m developing in certain areas seems to enjoy the rest and comes back cleaner and refreshed.

And the fact that it’s usually a daily habit means it’s not difficult to get back into the routine after stopping for a few days. In fact it is a joy to get back together with my old friend.

That’s the guitar I’m talking about.

Perhaps “joy” would be the wrong word for the moment I restart the daily cold shower habit. lol.
