Today, I am inspired to express my thoughts and
feelings. Since I will be very busy next
week because it will be my first day of school in the fall semester, I am
enjoying my time as much as I can with my family. The previous weeks, I spent my time working
and had fun in the water as well. With the
stressful summer I had, I enjoyed the remaining month camping and chilling out
with my family. We went out kayaking,
jet skiing, water tubing, and boating. Today, I will talk about my experience in kayaking. I promised to myself while being bombarded
with books to read, assignments to submit, and more school works to be done
that I will pamper myself with fun and more fun in the water. I am thankful to my loving husband and to my
beautiful daughter Madilynn who graces my summer with their untiring support,
love, and belief that I will be just fine. So, in the first weekend, my family
camped at woodland acres.
It’s a
beautiful place with a lake just right to start my first time kayaking
adventure. It was not that challenging
actually because the water was very calm and quiet but since nobody was around,
I and my family enjoyed the water its serenity, privacy, and great
weather. At first, I thought it will be
boring but I really had fun. It
actually brought memories from the past growing up. I had a happy childhood and joyful experiences
with my friends. I spent great time in the water since our house was situated
in the nearby shore. Basically, the
seashore was my playground and so most of the times we went playing, swimming,
and boating. Now, here I was with the
Kayak and the paddle about to plunge into the water.
Nervous at first but it went away so quickly. I paddled here and there, took pictures of
the surroundings, and enjoyed the sound made by the little creatures
surrounding the area. When I was
confident enough maneuvering the water, I brought my little girl and enjoyed
the water as well. She loves it. She acquired my interest and appreciation in
nature I guess. Whole weekend long, we had
fun. We celebrated the Sabbath walking
in the woods and in the hills thanking
God for his goodness to all of us.
