COURAGE: Something You Should Have!

When I was younger, I wasn't too reluctant to try just about anything. That is because my father was mostly there to back me up. There's that certain faith in me like how a child usually is when they trust someone older. For some reason, I often thought like my parents or older siblings would always have my back. I was the youngest in the family and everyone was a bit protective at the same time motivating me to be better. I did jump off a bridge one time, even though I did not know how to swim, without a lifejacket or anything that'll help me float. What I had was faith, faith that my father would rescue me and would never let me drown. I jumped and just as he promised, he was there grabbing my hand when I was already underwater. That's when i thought, swimming is more fun when you actually know how to swim. That's when I had the courage to learn how to swim and that was that jump that led me to love the sea and that jump provided me with the confidence to take on a couple of diving sesh and made me realize that i can if i have the courage to try.
