I am sure this will change. . . I know it will change. . . but I feel a little like I am standing in an enormouos seven-foot deep pool. I can bounce on the bottom so that my head rises above the surface now and again and suck in a lungful of air but my head soon goes under and the (slight) panic sets in. I can tread water and breathe normally but only for short periods.
I am sure that I would have drowned before now were it not for my cadre-mates. They make me realize that I am not alone and not the only one. Last night we played League of Legends for a couple of hours and , even though I am a self-professed non-gamer (some might even say gameaphobic) I was surprised how quickly I was able to pick up the technique and goals of the game.
So, one small step, or perhaps I should say one small breath. Perhaps it's me, or perhaps the pool is getting shallower, whichever may be, I am breathing more frequently now and I think I may continue to do so.
