A lonely soul

The violin is one instrument that pacifies my need for some romantic aura. It's one that I have always desired to have and play. I've longed to play at the top of my skills yet all of the efforts and research I have done really did little. In fact, even if you try to study the violin on your own, you won't find a lot of helpful things that may guide you along the course of mastering the art. There are just so many unobvious things that the violin contains and it doesn't seem to want to reveal all the techniques and skills in its own artistic manipulation.
I actually have one at home and it's been two years since I bought that thing from the premises of JB Music. Yep, I studied everything on my own and I didn't have any formal lessons. I noticed its been lying around for quite sometime now and I keep on checking on it frequently for any accumulated dust especially on the bridge part where it is the hardest to clean and the most sensitive part of the violin.
I have longed to have a companion who knows well about the craft, yet in my thorough (or so I call it) quest, I've found none. Perhaps you may have read a few threads that I started about violins, but it was such a lonely place out there. No one except my "ups" and "bumps" were populating the thread with life. Sadly, I have given up on those.
Oh my, when will I ever be able to meet one?
