It's tiring. It aches every part of my body muscles. It makes me feel drained to the core. At the end of every laps, I was left breathless, gasping for air. My heart beats faster than ever. My leg went numb and at times, there comes the muscle cramps.
But for each lap that I completed, it gives me satisfaction. It makes me feel contented. It makes me feel calm. For a few minutes that I swim from one end to the other end, I forgot about the world. I forgot my sorrows. I forgot the people around me. I forgot what matters around me.
I didn't know the enjoyment of swimming till I tried it recently. And I keep wanting to go more often. Swimming is never my passion nor will it be my hobby. But it helps to take away my sadness for awhile. And I guess, it's better than nothing.
