When the water passed my waist my family would shout and wave. So many times they heard of people drowning, I now understand the fear. I would always push it until my family called me in. I loved to see how far I could go, how long I could hold my breath, and how buoyant the water was. The current would pull me, but I would anchor myself into the sand. The waves came and my cousins and I would go over or under. We spent hours in the sun until we were called in.
Now I’m much older and when I go to the beach there isn’t anyone to call me in. So listen to waves crash, I feel the current and I swim right until my feet lift off the ground. I go right to the point where I feel weightless. I found that I always had a hard time seeing danger, where there is danger I see a challenge. I went my own way, trying to conquer danger, fear, or doubt often. I got pulled by many currents, sometimes too far from where I started. And then I was called in.
Listen to this tune (with headphones) :)
