Well it was my first time back in the water for a while. I tell myself that I would take it easy to get back to where I was but that not was the case. I thought I would go for 10 laps but I went for 20. It was good to get back swimming and feel like I can do anything that I put my mind too.
But I feel like I am normal person and I am practicing for the Olympics… but I am not. Sometimes I look at the other people swimming and I wish I could swim like them but I keep on doing what I can! I push myself with everything I do in my life and I know it hurts me later. No pain no gain though haha 😆 I love the water, it makes me feel free!! I feel like I was a fish in a past life. Maybe I was a rainbow fish, something very unique that stands out in all the best ways.
When I swim, even with a whole lane to myself… I’m never really alone. I always have my sister with me in my heart… even though we are so far apart, I feel that we have this bond when it comes to water. There are a lot of “shared experiences” that twins have and due to us being so different, I didn’t have as many “shared” experiences with my sister. However, the water makes both of us come alive in some unexplainable way.
