A broken string

My violin is one of my treasured possessions. I've broken a G string and don't have a spare, so it's off to the music shop. Think il invest in a new set and have them fitted and tuned.
I love playing my fiddle. I write tunes and songs and find this such a portable instrument. It's magic to be in a rain forest and make music.  I find it quite a spiritual experience.
Did you know that early cathedrals and churches represented forests.  The large columns soaring up to the arched roof represented giant trees and canopy soaring to heaven.
