Swimming pools have the ability to immediately make me regress back to childhood. I don't know if it is the smell of chlorine or the water sloshing into my face...but swimming pools just give me a sense of calm. A sense of security where my parents are nearby and I know we'll be having a great lunch/ dinner after at the hotel restaurant...and I can have anything my little heart wanted.
I love being in the water! Life seems so much simpler as I feel my 'problems' melt away one by one. There is something about being in water that makes one stop and breathe. Perhaps it is how it makes us aware that we are human beings who are vulnerable (by not being able to breathe underwater) and inconsequential in the bigger picture.
