I have been humbled by many "attempts" at learning how to do things, that in my mind, "everybody" else can do easily. I tried to learn to knit. Nope. I tried to learn Photoshop (it's something I finally learned "enough of" to do what I wanted to do but it literally took years. Math? I had to take statistics at a summer school where there was only me and one other student. I'm a therapist. I have a therapist. She suggests this difficulty is due to past trauma. I don't know. I'm still arrogant (stupid) enough to believe I should be able to do anything anyone else can do.
Isn’t that like life - seeing the knot from a different perspective offers fresh answers.
