RE: From panic to water to a gold medal

in The Ink Well2 years ago

WoW! This is the most inspirational thing that I've read in a long time. I related to your story and the fears your mum instilled in you. It's the same for my family, except that I have a real fear of the water and the deep blue.
I have gotten better though and this story might just be the catalyst for me to overcome my fear, the next time I go to a pool.
They say we are born natural swimmers and it's amazing what you did there!:)))
😍 I'm so happy that I read this 🙌
Congratulations!!!🏆

Just one recommendation: ask a professional to teach you. Surely in two weeks you will be swimming and understanding the water. I hope you are encouraged! You will be very happy swimming!Oh, dear, @millycf1976! so glad you are trying to overcome your fear of water! Learning to swim is a wonderful experience. For me, it is also a source of pride because I achieved it belatedly and with it I defeated a deeply installed fear.
