(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?
OK, here's my promised St. Valentine's Day jokster poem. (Writing time 3 minutes: Dead Poet inspired, obviously.)
Dedicated to my FAF Sista Twin, Beth, in honor of her comeback. :smooch:
Aww! Thank-you FAF Sista! Happy Valentine's Day!
To Fortress with Love
You are the sister I never had
My twin accross the miles
With your encouragement, I'm never sad
Instead, I'm always smiles
Strange to feel so much love
For someone I've never met
seems orchestrated by above
Friends for life, you can bet!!:smooch:
Happy Valentine's Day Sweetie!
Love,
Beth
This made my day, Sista! :smooch: :banana: :groovy: :agree: :hug:
Very important too ...
The hubby is out of town
And I am snowbound.
There is no school,
And the rugrats rule.
The only thing I reap
Is a bit more sleep.
No early morning swim.
I got to sleep in.
But they are being sweet.
Quite a rare feat.
Happy Valentine's Day FAF Twin Sista (I'm sure there's no supervillain in you)!!! :smooch:
