I Learned How Fast You Can Go

I Knew I Was Not A Failure In Any Way, And So Did Those Close To Me. It Doesn't Matter If You Fall Short; It Is Never A Failure To Go After Your Goals With Everything You've Got.

My Mom Put Me And My Sisters In The Water To Feel Comfortable, To Have Water Safety.

My Little Son Is Already Like Me - My Mom Has Always Said I Used To Bounce Off The Wall And Never Stop Talking Or Sit Still. I'm Starting To See That With Him. I Guess It's Living Proof He's Part Of Me.

I'm Fortunate To Have An Amazing, Strong Mother Who Is So Supportive Of Everything Me And My Sisters Did Growing Up - But She Was Someone Who Never Forced Us To Go Swim Or To Go Do This Or That. She Helped Us Think About Certain Consequences When We Needed To, But We Made Our Own Decisions. I Think If I Were Forced To Swim, I Wouldn't Have Stayed In The Pool As Long As I Did.

I Used To Always Go To Church On Holidays, But I Don't Go Much Any More.
