THE "S" OF SWIMMING......???


It's said dat"when u go down,what have u gotta do? just swim,swim and swim".D previous post mite hav been a little borin or out of sorts 4 u guys, so lets move on 2 somethin new.Recent olympics saw Micheal Phelps bag 8 golds.It rather made me think i shud also learn a bit of swimmin.Our college(srry institute) has rejuvinated its pool,so i needed to gt waterfriendly.
Swimmin accordin 2 dictionry dialect defines it as "to propel ur body thru water wid d help of limbs,tails or fins".By GODS' grace i dunno hav tail or fins,so it was down 2 my limbs.I decided 2 join d best trainin classes in town.Fortunately i didnt gt 1.D best had his classes full of novices.Even if i wud hav gt enrolld myself, he wud hav left his profession.D reasons of which i will b xplain here in my post.So lastly i gt enrolld in a club nd best days of my swimmin career began.


  • First day - i had gt my swimmin costumes nd it was really very small 4 me.D pant(rather d undies) was skin tight nd d fact dat i was topless added up my woes.I hd mangd 2 loose weight so d baby fat dat was under my skin wasnt dat prominent still it made me feel akward.I was watchin oders swim which gave me a feelin of complacency nd a feelin of embarrassment.I was complacent bcoz oders really swam well nd embarrassed bcoz i was too elderly 2 dem nd dey knew swimmin bettr dan me.I overcame d feelin of akwardness nd startd a slow stroll towards d pool bt d trainer behavd as a saddist showin coersive action against a paralysed boy.He askd me to jump as hard as i cud nd show som enthu.I wud hav really shown som of my wits to him in a battlefield if he was b4 me.Bt he was my trainer so i follwd him.Ijumpd nd it was a thunderin splash,4 a second or so i cudnt gt where i was. I was graspin 4 air nd all i cud find was water.It made me think of d sayin "water water evrywere, dere is no bubble of air".It was like gettin stranded in an island widout ur basic nessecities.Atlast i mangd up go superficial wid d surface,i saw d trainer laughin.I was thinkin "what d hell, i was abt to drown nd dis illheaded monster is njoyin".Dere was a bit of sarcasm in d laugh of oders who were dere in d pool as dey were lookin at a vegan nd smilin bcoz he was nevr goin2 njoy a piece of meat.D trainer helpd me as i was liitle less dan becomin paranoid.He said 2 me d golden words which i will remember till d very end of my lyf.He said "u can only depend on urself".Dat did arouse some confidence in me bt nt enugh to overcome d fear of drownin.I startd my first lesson i.e. PADDLING.It was a bit difficult bt i had 2 deal with it if i had 2 swim.D day was ended on a rader low note as i cunt gt d P of paddling.D trainer was fed up.As much as he kept on naggin i kept on doin mistakes.Somtyms i made excuses to go out of d pool bt he reasond against it.I literally thought dat he was a lunatic nd his face wasnt dat good too which made him luk more of a saddist.Lstly i gt wat i wanted land nd free land.I gt out of d pool nd i was overwhelmingly happy.I tuk out my eyegear to see d pool d last tym 4 d day.I had dis sinkin feelin in me,i was getin heavy nd i didnt like it.I ran to d cloak rum nd tuk a shower.Itmade me feel a lot better.Dere was a mirror near d wash basin nd a i tuk a gud luk at myself.I lookd drenchd in water which made me feel happy bt it was again d hauntin fear of toplessness which made me luk embarrassed.D feelin tuk ovr me nd i gt dressd as early as i cud.Addin 2 d comedy of errors was dat i was still wearin swimin undergarment instead of d real undergarment.My jeans soakd in all d watr nd d par under my wasist lookd discolourd.It was again akward nd dis tym dere was no escapin.It was as if my nemesis were helpless.I away asap bt to my dismay evry1 was by den aware of it.Dere was no option bt to walk rader run away widout lookin at oders bt i actd contrary to wat was in my head nd presumd as if i was nt known of d fact dat my pants r wet.I was laughin at my helplessness bt in a rather sattirical manner.I mangd to out of it nd d eventfull day ended atlast. DAY WAS GOIN TO BE MORE WORSE BT I WAS HOPIN AGAINST IT.

"Eat right,stay fit and Die anyway...."


Without a doubt, the most thought-provoking of one-liners is "Eat right, stay fit, die anyway." Do you ever think about that fact... that you will one day die? Life has so many joys... it has so much love and laughter, but the cold fact of death is the ultimate wet blanket. The great Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy said, "What is life for? To die? To kill myself at once? No, I am afraid. To wait for death until it comes? I fear that even more. Then I must live. But what for? In order to die? And I could not escape from that circle."
Jesus Christ destroyed that "circle." When true conversion takes place death loses its sting. Life is no longer futile. Whether you have contemplated suicide or not, please consider this thought. If there was one chance in a million that Jesus Christ abolished death (as the Bible claims), then you owe it to your good sense just to check it out (you have nothing to lose). The way to see if you need the Savior is to look for a moment at the Ten Commandments. Let's do that. Have you ever lied (even once--fibs, white lies, etc.)? Ever stolen (anything--the value is irrelevant)? Jesus said, "Whoever looks upon a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery already with her in his heart." Have you ever looked with lust? If you have said "Yes" to these three questions, by your own admission, you are a lying, thieving, adulterer at heart; and we've only looked at three of the Ten Commandments. Will you be innocent or guilty on the Day of Judgment? You know that you will be guilty, and therefore end up in Hell. That's not God's will. He provided a way for you to be forgiven. He sent His Son to take your punishment: "God commended His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." He was bruised for our iniquities. Jesus then rose from the dead and defeated death. Pray something like this: "Dear God, I repent of all of my sins (name them). This day I put my trust in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. Please forgive me and grant me your gift of everlasting life. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen" Then read the Bible daily and obey what you read (see John 14:21). God will never let you down. By the way, thank you for taking the time to read this.
Byeee nd i hope u njoyd nd will njoy...
