5 things I’ve learned in 5 days with The Boot

1

It actually doesn’t matter very much if you’re a bit late. Very few things are set-in-stone-on-time. One of those very few things is the start of the school day. (Just sayin’.)

Objects in sight are farther than they appear.

Most people are kind and willing to hold doors, carry bags, offer assistance, etc. for an injured woman. Except, it seems, TEENAGERS. Even teenagers who know you well. We seem to have an empathy problem in these years…

I seem to have a tendency to graze my left ankle with the right foot when I walk. I’m beginning to think I have never properly known how to walk all these years. This explains a lot. I suspect I’ve always been misaligned somewhere, and I’m not sure how or when exactly that happened. The Boot is only making it worse by highlighting or augmenting this misalignment.

5

Patience is an attribute I’ve not yet learned the value of. I’m better than I used to be — and I’m definitely more patient with others than I am with myself — but I still have lots to learn. Everything takes longer with The Boot. And I just have to suck that up and deal with it. Deep breaths, right?
