Long Time Since the Last Time

I can't play the guitar.
But I imagine that picking up the guitar and strumming a tune after a long time since the last time is very much like adjusting a patient I haven't seen for years.
The hands just remember where to go. Naturally, freely, so easily. Automatic.
And as I reacquaint myself with the spine of that patient who hops on my table after a long time since the last chiropractic adjustment, and that patient happens to also be a friend-- well, that must be what it feels like to not only just start playing the ol' guitar again, but to strum and sing a favorite song.
As if no time had passed by at all.
