Go ahead, jump into the poool. The water feels better when you just jump in, get the freezing shock over with quickly. You can't swim? Well...you'll learn, you'll have to learn to survive. You're scared? What if there is no one there to save you? No life guard on duty? All the better, you need to learn to depend on yourself, there won't always be someone there to rescue you from the waves or the depth of the water. The waters too dark, you can't see the bottom? There isn't always going to be someone to light your way. Are you crying? You didn't bring your bathing suit? towel? goggles? You're not always prepared for the things that comes your way...

but you deal with them as they come...

you learn to just jump in, learn to survive and rely on yourself, learn to light your own way, create your own path, and you learn that even if you're unprepared you can make it as long as you believe in yourself, you learn that even as those tears fall down life goes on and you have to learn to keep up.....because the tears will fall and you will have to keep up and only you can do it for yourself. People can wipe your tears but only you can make them stop falling.
