25 July 2024: @Mariannewest's! Freewrite Writing Prompt Day 2444: Master of Nothing

Welcome to #dailyprompt by the @daily.prompt, daily freewrite writing prompt from the @freewritehouse

John moved through life getting by and always having a feeling of inferiority. His contemporary students were in acting, singing, doing sports or achieving high grades, and as far as he was concerned, he lacked a place to belong. This oppressed him to the end: the name they gave him was “master of nothing. ” One day a man went to the attic and found a guitar which was old. He determined began strumming ; the chords were incorrect to begin with. What used to be days of practice, became months. Next, he was pressured to play a song at a friend’s party, so he performed with anxiety. He naturally located the chords with his fingers to intermingle comedy into the atmosphere. Applause followed. John learnt not to be a master of nothing but a master in the making; he got value in the fact that he had discovered melody in a tone-deaf society.
