About a month ago, I went to the beach for the very first time, and I had the time of my life. My biggest fear was that a wave was going to pull me in and I was going to die. I wanted to ride the jet ski sooooooo badly, but I was told I shouldn't just incase I fell off and panicked. So, I was sad, but I was determined to come home and take lessons. Well, one week in, this girl conquered her fear of the water. It seems SOOO small to people who can swim, but the older you get, the harder it is in release that fear of the water.
This morning, I did three laps and I was excited. It made my whole day amazing. Then my mother was proud and she hates the thought of me being in more water than I can drink; so she didn't like the ideas of lessons. But the smile on my face made all of her prayers worth it.
Then I had a couple of meets and I thank God for the people he brings into my life. My agent was so proud of me for working toward my dreams. I get down on myself because I feel like I should be further in my career and my dreams, but I had to realize I am only 24 years old and have been working on my dreams for three and a half years.
Today I have the biggest smile on my face knowing I have checked off another thing off my bucket list. Now it's time for a mini vacation back to the beach lol.
Happy Friday!
