Although he knew he would drown every time he had to keep trying it until he realized he needed to begin in the shallow to become a great swimmer.

It takes almost 40 minutes to go back home and my body ceaselessly sent a message to my brain to spot a seat on my getting on the bus. Wow‚ it was my lucky day (...or not).
