Back in the early 1980’s a young boy had shown tremendous natural talent as a guitar player. From the time he discovered his own talents and interests, the young man would play and practice for nearly five hours a day, for many years into the future on his 6 string acoustic guitar. While practicing at an after school hot spot in Birmingham, his talents came to the attention of a local music composer and to the people in the community around him, The composer was best friends with a conductor from one of London's smaller but promising orchestras, “Her Majesties Royal Orchestra of London”. At 14 years of age he was invited to play with “Her Majesties Royal Orchestra of London”, an honor that is not often extended to youth, and really should not be taken lightly. Yet, the young teenager passed on this opportunity stating that he didn’t feel ready yet. Many of his greatest supporters, although slightly confused, supported him, and his decision. They argued that it was one of the greatest honors to be asked to play with “Her Majesties Royal Orchestra of London” and quite possibly before the Queen. However, it would be a terrible life blunder should he have failed. The critics agreed, and he was allowed to practice, for a few more months. The teenager honestly believed that he had not perfected his playing style, and as such was feeling apprehensive about performing. The reality was, only he could see, and hear the flaws. He practiced for the next 5 years. And in that time more then 60 invitations had come and gone. And he passed them all, with the same excuse. When he hit 20 years of age, 6 years after he was initially discovered, he finally decided that he was ready for to perform before a large audience. Unfortunately, he had not realized that in the last year, the invitation had stopped. When he attempted to call all of the orchestras that had previously invited him, they all stated that they were not interested any more. When he inquired to the reason they all replied, there was a new guitar player they were seeking. He was that was 8 years old and he was playing a double neck guitar, with 12 strings on the bottom neck and 6 on the top neck. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Even though this story is fiction, these situations happen each day. Many Dom/mes and subs continually pass over potential partners in hopes of finding the PERFECT ONE. Caution would be advised, in the long run, they may find others will begin to loose interest in them.
