Not the carpet lady with the memorable phone number. I am speaking of Luna, my beautiful ukulele I am so dearly learning how to play. Fiddling with the strings while in Guitar Center, it was love at first strum. My three friends accompanied me as I, for the first time, played this string-tastic instrument.
Months later these great friends of mine bought me a Luna ukulele for my 19th birthday. We watched the sunrise, ate mangoes, and they handed me the most notable gift there was to receive on August 15th, 2015. Since this day I've been spending at least 20 minutes with the wooden piece of gold. Thus far, Luna has taught me patience, practice, and the beauty of repetition. Between learning chords, strumming patterns, and the new pain on my finger tips Luna has been serving an amazing purpose in my life. My parents say it's making their lives much more relaxed, as well as my nursing student, sister. The stress levels at the Opat home have statistically gone down thanks to Luna. When I'm a rock star/famous ukulele player/copy writer, my three friends Alexa, Tony and Brandon can have front row seats Here's to Luna and I finding harmony.
