Jammin In Jamaica
"Adventure is worthwhile” -Aristotle
At least that's what I told myself before I allowed our tour guide to slide me off of a rock and into the deep waters of Dunns’ River Falls. As l was aided into the water my intention was to open my eyes and close my nose but for some strange reason when I hit water the exact opposite happened. I could hear the faint screams of my mother from above as she watched while being guided on the dry run of the tour. After going under twice and swallowing what felt like a gallon of water, I reached the surface and at that very moment I realized it wasn't as bad as I thought. For someone who is unable to swim you would think this experience would have been a complete nightmare but it was actually one of the most freeing experiences I've had in some time. Often times it takes stepping out of your comfort zone to realize who we are and equally important; what we're made of.
