accomplishing a life long goal:

Swimming... oh how i longed to swim! I know it sounds silly that an 18 year old couldn't swim but thats my story. I have always deep down wanted to swim but was too chicken to do so. I have learned the older that i get that i need to set my fears aside and try to accomplish my goals. My fear of swimming was tremendous; that is until last Thursday. I decided to take private swimming lessons up at BYU-I. I was nervous like crazy but i still went. I am proud to say that my second swim lesson i back stroked the length the pool twice (even in 17 foot deep water ;) ) I am grateful that I am finally conquering my fear!
