Fears: I didn't figure out this fear until this last summer when I was in the florida keys on vacation. My family and I are decided to mix things up and go snuba diving- a mix between snorkeling and scuba diving. We werent experienced enough to go scuba diving so we settled for this which we though would be the next best thing. I however had no experience in the open ocean and didn't know what to expect. So it was something completely new to me to get in the water and look down and not be able to see the bottom. I dont think anything has unnerved me quit as much as that moment of jumping in the water and looking down. Im not sure what it was, maybe it was the fact that im not the best swimmer or maybe it was my imagination that was telling me something bigger then me is probably swimming just beyond my vision. Either way it scared me and made my self promise never to get out of the boat again unless i could see the bottom.
