Why Swim?

Why swim?

Why swim after the season is over? Why not?

Why not feel the freedom of the body flowing through the water from your own propulsion?

Why not fly in the water when you can’t fly in the air?

Why swim before work? To clear the mind. To clear the soul. To wander in thoughts.

Why swim lap after lap? Isn’t it repetitive? No, it isn’t.

Every stroke,

Every breath,

Every kick,

Every push off is different.

Why swim?

Because like Mount Everest, it’s there.
