You're Never Too Old To Chase Your

If You Want To Touch The Other Shore Badly Enough, Barring An Impossible Situation, You Will. If Your Desire Is Diluted For Any Reason, You'll Never Make It.

You Have A Dream And You Have Obstacles In Front Of You As We All Do. None Of Us Ever Get Through This Life Without Heartache, Without Turmoil, And If You Believe And You Have Faith And You Can Get Knocked Down And Get Back Up Again And You Believe In Perseverance As A Great Human Quality, You Find Your Way.

Just Getting In The Pool For Seven Straight Hours Is Unbearable To Me.... It's Grueling. There's Nothing Physically Pleasurable About It.
