(I somehow lost my post in the middle of reviewing it--sorry if this ends up posted twice! Now let's see if I can remember what I wrote.)
I was talking with a friend about swimming and she said she started "swimming for life" x number of years ago. I got the sense that she meant that it was more than a good workout--it kept her "alive." I have to admit that it has that kind of effect for me, too. At the risk of sounding too new-agey, it's nourishing in more than a physical sense.
What does swimming mean to you? How does that compare to other sports or activities you do? How does that meaning influence your goals and performance?

The rushing of the ocean
The sound of the waves
I can't get it out of my head
It's been there for days!
I shake out my head
Until I'm dizzy and sick
I want to dig it out
Quick get a Q-tip!!
It's driving me crazy
Go on get out of here
I just can't seem to get this
Water out of my ear!!
