Stuey's Law:
Everybody should be provided with and given free lessons to learn to play a musical instrument.

Reasoning:
EVERYONE should be given the opportunity to express themselves through making music, for the betterment of society as a whole and individual wellbeing.

This would make the world a better place for sure. I am sadly not musical. I so admire those who can coax music from an instrument. You guys rock, literally.

@CinnamonGirlE
Ah but the truth is you *are* musical.
It's innate in all humans. That's why music touches our souls more profoundly than any language. This "law" of mine would enable folk to discover this truth for themselves.

If you can tap your feet, you have rhythm.
If you can sing happy birthday to a friend, even badly, you have musicality.
If hearing music can make you feel happy or sad, you have soul.

You simply haven't found *your* instrument. ❤️

In those ways I do. Music is everything. Transcendental. I can't play an instrument, but according to you I have rhythm, soul and musicality. I am happy with it. It brings me joy. ❤️

Thank you Stuey. That's exactly right. I've tried for years to play and my stubbornness for perfection gets in the way and so I don't try anymore - fuck! I tap the steering wheel. I sing in the shower. Last night I opened an iPad and found some music app and noodled around on a keyboard with all the different settings. Oh boy that was fun! Even if it wasnt a song. It was my music for the moment.

@CinnamonGirlE @stueytheround @CriticalCupcake
The hell it's not even my perfection its my attention deficit. I can't follow along in a whole song.

@FireMonkey This is the way.
There's a quote I see now and again which goes something like "Be brave enough to suck at something you enjoy doing."

Do you own an iPad?

Animoog & Audiokit Synth One

BTW these are extremely cheap.

Kick out a bunch of those retro jams.
