Ah, okay, I see where you're coming from now. I write C++ code professionally, and I would never use it for a hobby project. It sounds like you're interested in learning, so I would advise you to just stick with it, if it's important enough to you (and probably add more languages to the mix). C++ offers unique performance benefits with a fairly high level syntax that reduces some of the tediousness of C. But it also suffers from reduced productivity when compared to other languages like say python or C#.
