I posted a little without introducing myself under a compromised screenname. But I wanted to say hello properly.

And I wanted to ask the board a question. I read somewhere once that people born in winter time have stronger lungs than those born in summer time. Supposedly we have better time controlling our breathing or some such theory. As an aquarius we're born in winter.

And personally when I go to Church (like I had to today for a memorial mass) I open my mouth and I sing along. I make no claims to sing great, but I can generally follow the pattern and make my voice follow the bouncing ball of music in Church. So my question is this, do you think it's true that we have control over our breathing and can sing, hold our breathe longer for sports, etc.?

I don't know whether I have a particularly strong lung capacity. If anything I'd guess it's on the weak side but I am not adequately knowledgable on lung capacities. When I go swimming I find that I tend to get out of breath faster or cannot hold my breath for as long as others.

However I like singing and very good at intonation and and hitting the right note if I say so myself 😉
