I swim every morning since Pompom passed away ... I was able to do the 6 laps when I started almost two months ago. Now I win 30 minutes ... 30 minutes used to be 15 laps. Now I am doing 18 laps in the same amount of time. But I am still one of the slowest swimmers at the club.

When you do 18 laps, you count 3, 6, 9, 12 .... 18 laps sound a lot but when you continue to swim, the numbers just add up. Soon I am swimming my last lap. It is like a time passing by. It does not move fast but it never stops. And when you realized how much time has passed, you are amazed. Life is like that. When you know how much time you spend here ... you are nearing the end. We all have to make sure we make the best of what we have.

この頃30分毎朝泳いでいます。最初は15分でしたが、30分頑張っています。でも30分で最初は15往復だったのが、今は18往復できています。１８は多いのですが、続けていると気がついたら半分、１２往復、１５往復と続きます。時の流れは止まらないのと同じで、気がついたら終わっています。人生もそんなものなのでしょう。速いです。
