I was thinking about the "pet peeves" thread. Seems that we should have a thread that is the opposite. Things we love about swimming. (Or is there one already that I missed?)

YES!! I love that too. It is awe inspiring to see the bright pink and orange colors of the sunrise. It energizes me and makes me feel inspired for the rest of the day!
Yeah! That is the most beautiful thing ever!
one thing I truly like about swimming:
Having Lane 5 ALL TO MYSELF!! :p
There's yet another great feeling about swimming now and it's the fact I have corrective goggles. I didn't know what I was missing. For twenty-three years, (Now 26, learned to swim when I was 3) I swam w/out corrective goggles and for the first time, I'm seeing swimming in a whole new light. I love it even more.
It's my own little secret place whenever I'm blue, (no pun intended) or when I had a hard day at work. experiencing the sights has brought joy to me. The smell of chlorine always makes me feel like I'm fifty feet tall, even on my darkest days.
Thanks for letting me share that with all of you.
