I know
I just hate the feeling of trying something and not being able to do it. I was learning the ukulele and getting OK at it but I just could not play in time with other people which was a big part of the classes, on my own fine, trying to keep up with other people just would not happen, first wrong note and I froze, had to give up the class in the end as it was making me miserable and have barely touched the thing since.

I fear drawing might be another thing I'm just unable to do and I'm still a bit sensitive about that part of my dyslexia.

oh I'm always terrible at things I try
I am a rubbish flautist at orchestra, I was awful and clumsy and slow at Tae Kwando, I'm not all that great at textiles (and everyone else was producing lovely things while I made pictures of mars or weird things to do with machine viruses), and I am clearly the worst archer of all us noobs

I don't mind being bad when I can learn
and I think you do yourself a disservice, the textiles stuff I've seen that you've done is not bad, it's just different and all the better for it.


I just feel there are certain thing I am just not able to do and I hate coming up against those because they feel so immutable and it sets me back. Never mind, plenty of stuff I can do.
