I have a similar story, MrFredSporty! For me it was 1982, working in a music store, was given a nice Fender acoustic as a Christmas bonus, then took some lessons with one of my bosses, the store’s co-owner. Couldn’t ask for a better shot at 6 string stardom😆. Alas, I didn’t stick with it, sold that guitar a few years later, and only decided to try again 4 years ago. Like you, though, this time I am stubbornly determined to hang in there. Even if I just manage to become a decent campfire guitarist, I’ll be happy enough. Like Kitman says, gotta’ live in the now and do my best to enjoy the ride
