I did what I need to do. When Manny said if I brought spare clothes and I did, he's not lying when he said that. He brought us to the beach wherein it has water sports such as surfing, scuba diving, snorkeling, paddle boarding, sea walking, and water jetpacks.
But everyone, including Lexie, is thrilled to try extreme water sports such as kite surfing, wakeboarding, and the banana boat. I thought I should settle for those that don't seem too much to me, but I carried my courage today to do something unbelievable.
In my normal life, if there's something that was too much for me and if there's an option that suits me, I would take the latter one. Instead of picking out the stuff that I couldn't possibly do, why would I waste my time for that?
And I've been sitting on that rock for a very long time. The truth is, I don't wanna push myself to it. I don't wanna cause some trouble and I don't wanna be the reason why that something wouldn't happen is because of me.
But I'm tired of being that lonely, boxed Heather who has been settling for less. I don't know why I am thinking of this since my trip would end in a few days and my life could possibly back into the normal thing I had. But I had the option now to do better. To change it. To do things out of my comfort zone.
Carrying this experience that shapes me to be who I am today. I know this isn't too much. They already have done it in their lives--maybe they usually do this for their whole lives. But for someone like me who is trying, this is progress and I'm proud of what I'm doing right now.
It may be that less to the eyes of the others, but for me, I feel like I have grown so much.
So, in the end, I tried a lot of activities that I never I would overcome. They were so happy for me. Hearing them say that I did it and other heartfelt words. I didn't imagine that I would hear it from the people I just met a few days ago.
I wish our trip wouldn't end and we continue it some other time. I might never meet these people once again, but I'm glad that they became a part of my life--a special moment of my life so I thought of one thing and I hope they will agree to it.
Crossing my fingers!
