Aries.

It seems that I have fallen head over feet for pottery. I do this once every couple of years. I start a new hobby, fall in love with it and then a year later I seem to loose interest again. Like I did with spinning. I will never sell my good wheel. However I would consider selling my Louet wheel and most of my fiber.

I am sure this pattern will continue with pottery. I love it now, but I will likely grow sick of it and stop going.

Now someone told me that I do this because I am an Aries. And then I think about all the millions of Aries that I know. My mom is an Aries and shares my birthday however she shows no signs of being an Aries. She is level headed, even tempered, and she finishes what she starts.
My dad, a few friends and some other people I know are all Aries. And it seems like all of us fall into the same pattern. We are all starters but not finishers. We all seem to jump into things with 2 feet and then quickly loose interest.

Some people would likely say that this is a bad habit. I cannot agree with this. I think of all the wonderful things I can do now, because I decided to jump in with two feet. I can spin, I can paint, I can make beautiful potter, I can do flooring, fix the toilet, knit, change the oil in my car, fix small things on my car, I"m learning how to build a cabin, I can do almost anything related to computers. I don't think I could do half these things if I didn't just jump in.
My dad has so many talents and I believe it is because he does the exact same thing as I do.

Then I think about Drew and how he has one hobby. His guitars/music. I wish I could be more like him in the way that he has stuck with music since he was young. Now he is a wonderful musician. He can play all sorts of instruments and all types of music. This is because of his perseverance.

I waver back and forth thinking that it would be nice if I stuck to one thing and got really good at it... then the Aries kicks in and I forget what I was thinking. I don't have the attention span that I need to keep doing one thing.

Maybe Aries people have ADD?
