Today I hope to be a little wiser

And a little kinder

I was thinking about how my parents have always said ‘you could swim before you could walk’ and I realised some of my earliest memories are of swimming.

I can recall one time in particular when I was still very young drifting off quite far from my mum & dad, I remember feeling scared and scrambling and then a weight supporting me and gently floating me back to them - who were freaking out and looking for me. We still aren’t sure how I disappeared or how I returned so calm and carefree...

From that day forward I’ve just about always felt safe and confident in the water, particularly the sea. I’m also WEIRDLY good at floating???? Like I can fall asleep in the water (I wouldn’t do this without someone else around) and would swim for so long as a child my whole body would start turning into a shriveled worm.

We all deserve to feel at home in our bodies.

I could happily spend the rest of eternity listening to music in the passenger seat of a car, lost in my imagination 🎶☁️
