Talked to Virginia yesterday. She has been studying the different astrological signs this year. She was telling me a little about the current sign Aries. I am on the cusp of Aries and Taurus, but have always self identified with just Taurus. I didn’t really know much about Aries to be honest. Turns out that I have a lot of those traits in me too. The biggest that she mentioned was that Aries are big on defining themselves. I have always had great resistance to other people defining who I am. It is my life after all, so I get to at least make the decisions about how I am going to live it. This independence is one Aries trait that I definitely have.
Speaking of defining myself, I have been going through a lot of self discovery over the last few months. I think that I like a lot of what I have found out about me, but I wasn’t really able to put it into words. Just so happens that I was writing a sketch with Ben Franklin in it tonight and ran across what is now my new favorite quote:
Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing. – Ben Franklin
Now that is a way to live a life!
