OVERCOMING MY FEARS.....
02/18/2007 10:19:24 / General
waiting for the boat trip.…
(my thoughts)
it's soon going to happen
how awful this feels and now it's too late to back off
what would i say i didn't find a fitting suit or i overslept so they left without me
no that wouldn't sound right john is coming too he would tell the others i chickened out
get ureself together woman this might not be as frightening after all
- Are you ready yet?
- We are leaving any minute now, you have to hurry up!
- I'm coming, have to pack down the suit first.
- Can you take my bag?
- Give me the wetsuit instead, it look's to too heavy for you.
- Where is Hassan and the others?
- Everyone is waiting in the boat and we are late!
On the boat…
- We are finally here, get on, I'll take your things and luck them in.
- Go inside the cabin while I go change, I'll be right back.
- Ok, just don't be long John, I really don't want to be left alone with those bushes. (Half naked hairy men)
(my thoughts)
how can they sit there and eat while the boat is rocking like this i feel sick
- Ejna rohel anta? Ta-ala honá. (Arabic with latin spelling)
- Can you please repeat that in english?
- I said where are you going, the food is here.
- I can see that, I was just going to the toilet first.
- Are you feeling sick?
- No, just the usual business.
- Ok, just hurry up, these men are hungry and there won’t be any food left soon.
(my thoughts)
i can't hold it any longer
Outside the restroom…
- What are you doing in there?
- You've'e been in there for sometime now, are you okay?
(my thoughts)
this is weird i don't usually get seasick maybe because i worry a lot about the diving
what if history repeats itself will i ever make it thru this time what if things go like last time i was intentionally pushed down from the boat unprepared and was trapped under the boat i hurt my leg and was later diagnosed with a chock that lasted for weeks i wonder if anyone can see the fear in me can it be obvious to others look at me i look terrible i have to wash my face before i go out
- Yes, I'm fine, i'm just changing, I'll be out in second.
- Changing, that takes thirty minutes?
- Sometimes I just don't understand you women.
- Come up on deck later when your'e done, in the mean time I'll get myself a tan before diving.
Up on deck....
- John, where are you?
- He is lying over there.
- Thanks Gregory.
- There you are!
- Is it really healthy lying here and getting toasted in the sun?
- yes, I intend to get that tan, if it means I have to lie here until noon, then so be it.
- Even if it means that you for the moment look like a real christmas ham?
- That will soon pass, wait a little more longer and you will see, I'll be just as well fried as you.- I hope so for your sake.
- EVERYBODY GET DOWNSTAIRS NOW!
- What does Hassan want now?
- I think it's time to review the diving instructions.
- Everyone, take your cases with your things and get ready, if anyone needs help you know where to find me.
(my thoughts)
okay if i'm not not mistaking the suit is on first then connect the guage to the air tank and check everything is as they should be
then i should connect the tank to the vest God that's heavy
- John, could you please help me to get this on?
- Sure, but put on your frog feet's first then you will only have the masque left.
( my thoughts)
there now i'm ready to dive
- I'm exited to meet all the fish in there.
- Me too, and all those other things that belongs in there.
Waiting in turn's.....
- Jump!
- Jump, I'll catch u after, no need to fear.
(my thoughts)
i want to i'm going to please God if this goes wrong i want you to take care of my loved ones and make sure i don't suffer during my journey to the other side
- Will you jump already!
(my thoughts)
i will jump i'm jumping now any minute look at me jump i'm jumpiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing i made it i'm unharmed i'm in the water i made it thank you God
Short while after.....
there is hassan it's him i'm going to dive with he is stretching to grip my hand before we dive
Underwater…
i forgot how peacefull and sillent it is down here not a sound besides my drumming heart it's been long time sense i was here one year and five months of therapy to be exactwhat now we're making a stop i wonder why oh hassan is wondering if i still want to dive further down let me check just how fare we've got so far
the gauge is showing exact at 15.7m if we are to find coral Reaves then we have to continue diving i have to make a signal for a yes thumb down
Couple of meters after...
oh such a wonderful sight iv'e been longing for this for so long and now i'm actually facing these fishes in all those different colors and shapes
hey these over there are coming right at me they seem to be fearless hey get away from me i'm not somebody's food oh no i let go of hassan where is he going
come back here you idiot i have to flash him a signal there he is he is coming back breath slowly slowly otherwise i'll consume all the air before getting anywhere
hassan you idiot we are in more than 25m below water don't ever leave me like that again my heart won't cope here take my hand
Short while after....
there comes a group of fish that look's like tiger fishes and there is another group must be parrot fishes those over there seem unfamiliar to me
but i guess from their ugly faces they are lizard fishes oh there is the sight of the day the beautiful red star that the locals call the hurghada star
I wish to take it with me but that would be illegal of course why is hassan pulling my arm i want to see more look over there come let's have a look
it's a shell of some sort pretty yes yes stop pulling my arm you will soon rip it off okay we can continue upwards bye my beautiful star
bye my beautiful fishes bye everyone i'll never forget this
