Swimming

long day.
swimming was involved which automatically made the day longer...
i don't like swimming much at all but it was nice playing with the little ones.
Swimming takes effort to have the simple gift of breathing. Thus the exhaustion at the end of all the strain. While I am a "good" swimmer i do not revel the idea of swimming  for any extended amount of time. The one exception being when the water is moving (swift rivers, ocean at high tide etc.)
The take home lesson is that in life i can choose to not get in water much but i cannot choose not to swim.
Life is full of  rip-currents and unfathomable depths- it is my duty to be determined to seeing the end, and staying afloat.
