The Wandering Hermit: How’s Everybody Doin’ Today? Wanna Hear About My Lungs?

One of my favorite concepts is having the confidence to walk into a room like you own everything.  Of course, I never quite do have that level of confidence, but I think I’ve figured out a way to fake it, and faking it is nearly as good it most cases.  Recently, whenever I’ve been around other people I like to walk in like I’m the district manager; I’m not doing a walk through this week, but I am just seeing how everyone is doing.  What is surprising is how well even that level of confidence works.

I need to keep working on breathing.  I am MILES from where I started, but I do wish I could breath even more deeply.  I want to just fill those lungs up fully and enjoy the full capacity of respiration that I have lacked for so long.  Maybe it’ll take time.  Maybe it will never happen, but I’m trying.  I don’t know what would help other than what I’m already doing.  I’m willing to try anything.
