It was sudden decision. to be frank one which always resided in my heart from long back. The memories of sitting out as a odd one when ever i visited my fathers village when other children of my age swam across the temple pond sent a chill across. I avoided having bath there coz of my lameness in swimming. I always wondered hw people managed to stay afloat. My mom always insisted me in learning swimming. but i couldnt do it,there where thousand of lame excuses.
The day had came to pull the strings close.i decided to do something in order to control my belly dia..and the best way sorted out was learn swimming..There where two options for that..a doudle shot..one it cuts the fat in ur bodythe second u can learn swimming..Put a brave face across those whom made u feel ashamed coz of ur attitude difference towards water.So we decided to explore the near by resources and tally them with ur financial status.I and my friend had to face a volley of sarcasms from my friends when i kept the idea of swimming..Now it was do or die..Coz u said it and u have to keep it,atleast for ur peaceful existence there.We paid the amount and then joined for a 15days class..
15days is too less for a person like me to atleast catch up with water, Any way i was standing in position where i cant walk back..We bought swimming shots and a cap..atleast something is better is than nothing.The big Day arrived..we walked across the pool with a feel of guiltiness for punishing myself against the cold water which paused my beat at heart at least for few seconds..The first day was quiet boring..A good tube was given and we made to float with the aid of that..our hands where subjected to rigorous motion for creating ripples in water to keep as float..We felt like,its not easy,lets call it off...But something’s when poised to complete, gets completed in across conditions.
The second day the same was followed with an addition of legs to it..My legs moved in a V shape pushing the water across like a paddle boat..When i tried coordinating both arms and legs it was like a frog in water..i remembered the ones i used to see across in the near by fields,a sense of respect for them filled in me.The tube was removed on day3..Perphaps if someone was there to see me and my friend swimming they would have a cardiac arrest coz of our style of swimming..it was like a boat trying to keep itself stabilized in a sea swept by huge waves.Though we drank hell of water by the end of the hour we learned to keep stabilised atleast for few seconds even though that method may suck ur total energy..But a milestone was achieved.
Day 4-7 we praticised in expertise breast stroke and we succeded..The rest of days where kept apart for different styles like free stroke,butterfly etc..The day which we really started enjoying water was day11..Once ur done with the learning u feel urself quiet comfortable across the cool water which shivers the laziness in u.The days passed without out notices. There where few breaks between the 15days..it extended finally to around 30 to complete the 15day course..But the sense of been a more better compared to others whom cant swim gives a feel of good..Why shouldn’t i learn swimming in this world when 76% of her itself is been covered by water itself...Lets keep gng to enjoy the strokes of joy and refreshment.
