I think beauty is the thing that so many people miss in "silly" hobbies. Not that G.K. Chesterton is exactly my favourite person to quote, but "A man must love a thing very much if he practices it without any hope of fame or money, but even practice it without any hope of doing it well." I have so much respect for the older amateurs whom I've met over the course of playing and teaching. Those folks are the ones who keep the real spirit and purpose of music alive - To create beauty, and for that beauty to be enjoyed by others.
