So there it ends.
Just minutes ago, I was at my final Swim team banquet, and it was then that the feeling struck me, it was finally over. Years of hard work and dedication ended up fruitless in terms of medals and trophies, but in the end I gained something that I value so much more, love. Yes, I could feel the love the friendship and the camaraderie. So what? I ended up never qualifying for one meet. I'm Scott remember? I value those things that others take for granted. In the end I'm not going to remember all those swims I did, in fact I barely remember them as it is. But in those special moments of reflection, I will always remember my swim team friends. For for the last four years, I have spent my time and effort with them. We have shared struggle and triumph. And now it ends.
I love you guys.
I can only wish that the future will be bright for you guys. I'll visit.
