In the Pool
May 30, 2007 by haziamyperspective
My friend suddenly smsed me this morning to ask if I would like to go swimming with her after work. I immediately replied ‘yes’.
The truth was that I haven’t been in the pool for a while. Yes, it brought back memories on something… or rather someone… whom I do not wish to be reminded of.
Coincidentally, Ad was the one who suggested that I picked up swimming as an exercise when I wanted to lose weight a few months ago. It was his favourite sport.
Just now, my friend arrived 30 minutes too early and in the midst of rushing, I couldn’t remember what I did with my old bright blue and yellow swimsuit. So, I ended up wearing my brand new black & white one. I initially wanted to save it for special occasions only, such as the getaway.
We were there for a mere 30 minutes before losing breath but oh yes, being in the pool again hurt. His useful tips and words of advice kept on ringing in my ears.
Time heals your pain and dries your tears…wise words indeed. Time is what I need right now.
