You've Got to Throw Yourself In!
by Andrea Waltz

I was tumbling, blindly, and flailing like a crazy person. I was four. In pre-school. It's one of my earliest memories: the lady teaching me how to swim somehow managed to free herself from my grip (despite my grabbing her head and shoulders with a python-like strangehold) and tossed me into the water.  I eventually righted myself and made my way back to her waiting arms.  I don't blame her, it had to be done. At some point the screaming, crying water-tantrum had to be broken. There was no reasoning with me.

I thought of this when I read a note on our facebook page, from a young woman who recently heard us speak: "just wanted to thank you as I have gone way out of my comfort zone & thrown myself out there WAY more than ever since then."

Like the lady with me in the pool, sometimes we just have to just get thown in. Of course, now we have to rely on ourselves. There is no one who will throw us. So, even though inside, we may be screaming, terrified... there's just no reasoning with oursevles.  So, you've got to do it... throw yourself in!
