Dear Diary:

I am writing on your pages my happiness that I have felt after doing the impossible. I thought I could never ever learn swimming. I was scared of deep water. I always avoided descending into the swimming pool or a shallow brook or a canal. However, in the summer vacation I decided to learn swimming. I was so lucky to have got such a wonderful and skillful coach. I told him all my fears. He very patiently taught me the basics. He taught me paddling, floating, breathing in water, etc; then he would swim with me towards the deeper end of the pool. I also practiced very hard. As a result today I swam the length of the pool all alone, without anyone’s assistance. I am so happy. I have learnt nothing is impossible if we give it a sincere try.

Answer 2

Answer:

a young seagull who is afraid to fly. All his younger siblings despite their much shorter wings flew fearlessly while he could not gather the courage to trust his own wings. The young seagull became sad when he saw his parents perfecting his younger siblings in the art of flying. His parents scold and taunt him for not even trying. They even call him a “coward”. They tell him a lot to at least try and also threaten him to leave him alone and hungry if he does not. The following day, he is left in isolation and upon feeling hungry; he tries to seek the attention of his family members. Only his mother, who is withering a fish in an attempt to eat it, notices his son. The young seagull cries out of starvation hoping his mother would help. On seeing his mother come to him with the fish, he gets excited. But on noticing that his mother stopped mid-way, he gets maddened out of hunger and takes a dive at the fish, forgetting for a moment that he is afraid to fly. Finally, he took his first flight. All the family members celebrate his victory by cheering and dancing around him. He also attempts at floating in the sea that he was once afraid of. Thus, he overcomes his fear and realises that it is all in the mind.
