Float, Swim, Dive

There is something about diving under the surface of the water that is both a little frightening, and a whole lot of wonderful.

That moment when my face submerges and I can see the open space of the underwater realm before me...

My hair waving out behind me, and the water rushing past my skin...

Exhaling all my air in a cloud of bubbles and letting myself float to the ground...

Okay. All of this happened in my neighbor's in-ground pool. I would be too scared to do it anywhere else (pond, lake, or ocean), so I am very happy I was safe in clear water that does not get any deeper than eight feet.

Do you love swimming?
