Had a great practice tonight. I decided not to worry so much and have fun. I found myself moving through chord changes smooth as butter. It was a wonderful feeling. I even tried my hand at Be thou my vision, a hymn I have been avoiding as it is full of chord changes and is also one of my favourites. It wasn't smooth as silk, but it was fun. I don't know if this is what real musicians refer to as feeling the groove, but it did feel like I could play effortlessly with familiar, simple tunes. It was a real boost to make music like that again.
I even began to think that I might be ready to play in church. Scary.
