I think I finally figured out how I do it. It's kind of funny that I've done it subconsciously for so long, but

You are Ninja.

More seriously, I think this also brings something to your previous discussion about isshin-denshin, and though I'm blanking on the work the whole concept of no-mind. Both with you moving through the world, but specifically with your Dad's story; his 'going blank'. Some folk may only do this sporadically, but if they do so at a vital moment (two people who would otherwise done their best to end a/his life) then they are not noticed because the others are intensely focused on other things.

I sneak up on people too.
I jingle the keys on my belt so they don't jump... and they still don't notice.
Sigh.

I do it, too, and I honestly can't tell you why. It's not like I don't have an ego that fills the room...
