I certainly don't plan on *quitting* the guitar, absolutely not. It's just that in the last few months, my practicing became intensely devoted to gaining speed, 3 or 4 hours a day of whatever it took to reach that end. Eventually I kind of burned out, trying to fit that in my life along with everything else. Now, I just need to space myself from it a bit, because when I do start playing again I'm not going to be able to go in with the mentality of "four hours a day of running scales" - which was essentially what I became to understand as the only way for me to go about the guitar. That can't be done right now. So I need a breather to let my mind adjust, then I'm sure I'll be fomented with a new passion for it.
I still visit the board on occasion though. It seems everything is running smoothly. Anyways, just wanted to let you guys know what's going on with me, in case anyone noticed I stopped posting (lol).
Take care, and keep practicing
