Quote by Alison C. Bested

“This is an example of pacing when shopping. Break shopping into multiple steps: 1) rest at home before driving the car to the store, 2) drive to the store, 3) rest, lying down in the car after driving to the store, 4) shop for 30 min in the store, 5) rest lying down in the car before going home, 6) drive home and 7) rest at home.”

“She thought of the animals at the Zoo. She and Bub had gone there one Sunday afternoon. They arrived in time to see the lions and tigers being fed. There was a moment, before the great hunks of red meat were thrust into the cages, when the big cats prowled back and forth, desperate, raging, ravening. They walked in a space even smaller than the confines of the cages made necessary, moving in an area just barely the length of their bodies. A few steps up and turn. A few steps down and turn. They were weaving back and forth, growling, roaring, raging at the bars that kept them from the meat, until the entire building was filled with the sound, until the people watching drew back from the cages, feeling insecure, frightened at the sight and the sound of such uncontrolled savagery. She was becoming something like that.”

“Lan grimaced. Was she that afraid of a man wearing the hadori? Did she think his pacing a threat?

No, he had been in the walking stance called Leopard in High Grass, used when there were enemies on all sides. He needed calm.”
