Swimming Changed My Life
By Fatima Syeda
When my mother put me in swimming classes, I was scared. On my first day of swimming, I was scared to go in the water because I thought I would sink.
My teacher helped me to get in the water and showed me how to float. When I tried myself, I was able to float and didn’t sink. I was so happy that I could float.
After few days, I started going under the water and it was so cool. This was the defining moment for me that I was not scared of swimming anymore.
