Living Life without a LifeJacket (or: Hope Doesn't Float)
I jumped off the end of the boat and held my breath.
The water was exaclty the same temperature as the air. and as I sank softly down into the water, i opened my eyes. The lake was a bright as the sky. It reminded me there are balances in this life.
Like having freedom and friendship.
Like having family and independence.
Like having adventure and familiarity.
Even if it lasts only as long as one breath.
