Swimming Lessons

I spent 37 years learning how to swim. You could say I’m an expert at swimming lessons.

Lesson #1
You can’t learn to swim without getting wet.

Lesson #2
Funny thing, water
The more you fear it
The more you fight it.
The more you fight it,
The more you sink.
Trust, just trust.

yeah it's tough though. looking back, I can't say I believed anyone who told me, "c'mon in, the water's fine..."
