Chapter 5: So this is love.


Yesterday while I was tuning my husband's violin, I accidentally broke one of the strings. I told him what happened & apologized. Instead of being upset with me, he was only concerned about how the string snapped & hurt the back of my hand... with a response like that, all I can think of to say (or sing) is:

"So this is love
Mmmmm
So this is love
So this is what makes life divine....
So this is the miracle that I've been dreaming of....
Mmmmm
So this is love"
—Cinderella

I'm feeling pretty blessed right about now to have the best friend & husband that I do. Too often people can get so caught up with all the materialistic things in this world that we forget about the things that really matter—like family, friends, health, compassion, humanity, kindness, love.... Not petty things such as a broken violin string. What's the point in wasting energy & getting upset over something so minuscule when your energy could be directed elsewhere? Somewhere more useful, positive, & loving.... With this violin mishap, my husband helped me remember that. Always love.
