Keep it up! What a difference a great teacher makes, doesn't it! Especially when you're not sure exactly why you're doing it (other than fun).

I'm learning drums at age 36 - I'm one year into weekly lessons - and it's just plain fun. Not sure what my goals are for drumming. Maybe it's nice just not to have any goals for some activity, for once! To just enjoy it for playing's sake.
