At what point did you realize that you hated me?
If the water were deeper, I would have drowned, and you would have watched with a smile plastered on your face. But the further I moved from the drowning waters, the more I felt you mourn!
You wanted me dead!
I know now that you felt that if you couldn’t kill me, you would send someone else to do it. And he was a joke!
In fact, he was weaker than you, and that’s saying a lot because you are pathetically weak. Your idea of solving a problem is pointing fingers towards who you can blame, and we all know pointing fingers will never solve a thing, but it will make you look like an innocent party.
No one ever points the finger at themselves!
I remember the day that I came to you dripping with blood. I was beaten, thrown out in the dark, and left for dead. I fought for my life, and when I found myself on the side of a dark road, I knew I wasn’t alone.
When I found my way back home, I saw the look on your face and knew right then and there that you didn’t expect me to come back in one piece and rise higher than you could ever dream of.
Learning To Swim At An Early Age
Survival is the one thing that we’re all trying to do. Learning to navigate through life with the help of others is rewarding, but unfortunately, we aren’t all granted that pleasure. And that’s okay!
Self-taught swimmers are the toughest, and the most rewarding part is, we have the honor of looking our wanna be killers in the face and say you tried to drown me but you ended up killing yourself.
Thank you for reading part 2!
You could have chosen any blog to read, but you chose mine, and I’m honored!

(I was a self-taught swimmer, too. Plenty of time in lakes, but no swim lessons for this girl.)
