Coming home from very lonely places, all of us go a little mad: whether from great personal success, or just an all-night drive, we are the sole survivors of a world no one else has ever seen.
I really like your info. Very helpful, you describe the topic very well
Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it’s a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.
Great points altogether, you just gained a brand new reader. Do you have any feedback on your most recent post though?
It’s pretty interesting that the mainstream media has changed the way it looks at this recently dont you think? What once seemed like a never discussed issue has become more prevelant. Overall though I’m looking for a change.

Exceptional knowledge, I value all of these opinions. The whole world needs to perceive emancipated to extract themselves frankly







First I must say that my heart goes out to the parents and families of these kids. I am an Afro American mother of 5 beautiful children, born and raised in Ca. I am a very strong swimmer and so are my first 4 children, but we also know you cant always trust the water and currents, drop-offs and such. I married a wonderful loving Afro American man from Texas who’s idea of swimming was ‘fill up the bath tub and have fun’, or no swimming at all! No getting on boats either, as it had been drilled into him. You only fish from the creek bank and that is it. Which fishing was his favorite. Because of his fears my baby did not swim. This summer I was supposed to sneak off and teach our baby to swim, as she was so tired of playing in the little/shallow side. Unfortunetly because of his fears my 11yr. baby girl drowned on June 5th, 2010. She was at a party that did not include swimming, and was supposedly pushed into the water by another kid. None of the adults at the party even knew my baby was even in the water. Even after losing our baby, and struggling with it everyday my husbands fear of the water only grew stronger. He got rid of all his fishing gear and WONT go near any water, and wont even talk about water. I also have 3 grandsons and I tell him that he has to
take them fishing and that we need to teach them to swim so that this never happens again to none of our babys. He wont hear of it. He says not today or tommorow. But this is the one time that I must go against him and his beliefs. After loosing my baby
I have to say to all parents make sure your babys know how to swim, you never know when they may need to know, as in my daughters case. And just because you are afraid/dont trust the water, PLEASE dont take that option away from your children. Putting it off just wont do. We teach our babys everything
else, why not teach them to swim, it just might oneday save there lives.
