(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?

St. Val's Love for swim4me
There's another swim bud of the so fairer sex,
Some folks call her Kathy,and some call her "Tex"
Of mirth and of humour heart is just filled,
And when I get to talk to her, I feel so thrilled.
:smooch:
St. Val's Love for some_girl
Now this femme New Yorker claims to be hip,
A smart line or come back she'll shoot from the lip
When she stood on the block I cheered out her name,
It might have just freaked her, but we're pals, just the same.
