THANKFUL FOR MY BIGGEST FAN

Folder: 
Thanksgiving

 

Thankful for the boy

who complimented me,

admiring my ability

to play the guitar.

If he only knew how far

outside my comfort zone

I had to travel to play

in front of others.

If he only knew the doubt

that floods my head

how badly I think I play.

If he only knew just how

encouraging his words were.

Thankful for the boy

who complimented me,

admiring my ability

to play the guitar.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Wrote this one after a young man from my church told me that he found my YouTube channel and that I'm a "good guitar player."  I found his words to be encouraging, as I sometimes doubt myself being self-taught.  So, yeah I'm very thankful for his words of encouragement.  You never know just how powerful the words you speak to others are.  Thanks, C, I appreciate you.
