Violin

These last 2 of 3 years I've taken violin, I've struggled with the bow because I damaged the nerves in my hands and arms, when I was upset and hit the wall and table.  I might finally have it, at least at the level I'm at.  It's better I can teach myself now, so I can pace myself and work on more songs at a time.  I feel stopping piano also took away talent.  I didn't practice violin enough, maybe, but in some ways I think it might be what some people do, especially who do other things.  When I did piano, there wasn't as much to practice, at first.  I was with 1 violin teacher for 2 years, and she said, if I say I've taken violin for more than 2 years, I would not be a beginner.
