Not afraid to die, but afraid to live.

As I floated on Veggies in Durban in my wetsuit, with my yellow fins stuck to my feet, mask on my face keeping the water off of my eyes and nose,Cylinder on by back supported by the BC with no one else in site, but the blue sky and the tug boats lazying around I began to panick a little and was not sure what had gone wrong. I must admit that I did not have, at least I don't remember thinking about death, but the only thing was how do I get to the shore.

Thanks to the great dive instructors that we had with us I was soon rescued and went deep in the water again. I then realised that in the 24 years that God has allowed me to experience I am not afraid of dying, but of living this life he has given to us, the trials and the tribulations are far worse than losing yourself at sea.

This though was an awesome experience and I cannot wait to go back into the ocean tomorrow morning and start all over again.

Carpe Diem.
