Finding Peace in the Storm

As a child, I was relatively fearless. 

I never hesitated to hop on a fast roller coaster, explore the woods on my own, or climb onto the back of a tall horse. 

Despite this, one thing that still manages to stir up fear in my heart is the rumble of thunder.

Storms are unpredictable, create panic and fear, and can leave a path of destruction.

Can I Keep Swimming Through The Storm?

Have you ever wanted to learn how to scuba dive?

The idea of being able to retreat into the depths of the ocean and explore all of the sea life, caverns, and underwater treasures in real-life color always seemed fascinating to me.

When I was 20 years old, I actually got the chance…kind of.

When I was a junior in college, before I lost my sight, I took a scuba class.

Yes, it was actually an elective course that was offered at my school. We were supplied with wet suits, goggles, flippers, and oxygen tanks as we learned all of the ins and outs of becoming a diver.

While it was a lot of fun, I definitely was not prepared for how challenging it would be, both mentally and physically!
