Sports and the unathletic but musically inclined....The Indoor Kid

As a younger teenage I found I began to spend more and more time in my room creating music. While many of my peers found affirmation in sports and playing sports in there free time or watching sports or playing sport video games, I was getting more and more into music, gear, musicians and playing instruments of every kind. The other day people were going to play a sport and they didnt invite me. Then I remembered why! For years I have always said no! Haha, simply enough, I was for the most part, an indoors kid. I was way into creating crafts constructed of pipecleaners or yarn or reading several books per week, none of those types of outdoor activities interested me. I mean, now I am all for excercise and such, but I find the most rewarding activities are still reading books, creating music, and generally, spending a lot of time indoors. I don't recommend this a holistic approach, because social skills are not learned in books or in hours of practicing. Though ask me anyday, and I wouldn't trade any of my experience for some social skills or athletic ability. See while the outside world may regard young men who spend their time learning art or taking music seriously as odd or strange, not without good reason, they sometimes miss that this rare individual is cultivating a unique perspective. Take it from your average everyday unathletic but musically inclined individual.
