I recently took up ceramics too and everything you say resonates. It's one of the few places that I can really embrace the whole "it's the journey not the destination". Learning not to rush, not to try to control too much, staying present, to stop when I'm happy with it, to make a rainbow when I'm not happy with it, to start again when it falls apart.
Putting things in a dish or a basket has done more for my personal calm than meditation ever could.
😂honestly same
