One time I was brave

One time when I was brave was the first time I had to go swimming.This had to be one of the scariest days of my life. At this age I didnt know much so I though everything that came on tv was true. I believe like a week before I was supposed to go swimming I saw on the news that a 5 year old kid drowned in a pool. So when my mom told me I was going swimming I was terrified. In the end i had no choice but to swallow my fear and hop in. I didnt want to seem like a loser in front of all my family members and friends.
