Yo Yo Ma inspires me ... I don't care about other people's reviews on him, especially those coming from non-musical background. He inspired me to learn string instruments.
I've been a bad girl. Well, actually, not bad. Just one who could not follow through. Like in golf, your follow through is important for accuracy. I've learnt a few lessons of the violin, and I stopped.
Not that I gave up, but I did not have the time previously. Was working literally round the clock, clocking more than 12 hours a day's worth of work. When I quit the shipping line and came out to be a self-employed person (twice), I have to control my spending, so I had to stop my bank account from "bleeding" out.
Why the sudden interest?
I had thrown myself out of the rat race, into my own world where I have to scrape and save every penny now, living almost to the bare minimum (except those lazy times where I still took taxi rides :P). Time is a double-edged sword, someone had said to me. But I begin to realise my own self existence, and I want to experience the thrills life has to offer.
Life is just fleeting by, every milli-second, and life deserved to be treasured, like time.
I want to learn as many things as possible, as many languages as I possibly can, as many cultures as my mind can take, before life passes me by.
Kudos! I share your sentiments, Yo Yo Ma or self development.
