Summer Thoughts...

I am sad...

not really the sad...teary kind of sad... just sad....

 to say farewell to the zaim family's summer house sapanca pool.....sad that till next summer... i wont be able to swim again... sad because... spending a month at the pool....training and swimming (my record this year..150 trips -to n fro counted as one trip)... ..i was  at my happiest time... coz no matter how tired i was...once i was in the pool..swimming at my own pace... i was in a world of my own...a world i was at the happiest.....a world only i can understand coz that is where my passion lies....and sad...coz...i cant afford to go to  ladies sports center to swim. in istanbul as the  prices r....

But i am not complaining.... sadness comes from the need to say farewell...sadness comes from the knowledge that  the body has improved a lot of  itz stamina and toned the necessary parts ..n will it go away now??? though sadness is comforted by the knowledge that despite having to say goodbye to the pool... there is always the walk at the park or a run or two somewhere... ...

In fact.. i am thankful to Allah for giving me this opportunity to swim at my heart's content...... for blessing me with all that i am blessed with...for  the chance to swim.... for everything...

in fact, i think this summer has been a dream come true....we started with the weekend gateaway trip at kuşadası....where we were acquainted with the cold...wavy..and later clear n beautiful sea......we were also blessed with a dream adventurous trip where we went to samsun...rize..gurcistan (georgia)... trabzon and amasya for a karadeniz trip which took our breath away.....i had dreamed of such a karadeniz trip for yearsss...

 we had also spent more than a month in total at sapanca house.... playing with the cats....esp fifi and puffy n fındık which we miss sooo much.....swimming and doing what we do all the time at the sapanca house.... and did i tell you that we swam after midnight till about 2 am during Ramadhan?? ......

a night gateaway to akçakoça was refreshing indeed....with Allah granted us a sea almost with no wave one day just like swimming in a pool.. and the best big waves ever the next day that we jumped n screamed ourselves in total delight...and tomorrow... from one karadeniz sea end..we will say au revoir to this dangerous sea at the other end......iğneada....

Like i say...i am blessed.. so being sad coz of the pool is like a spoilt brat pouting  for no reason..no..i am not pouting... i am not thankless... i am thankful..and yet...being the human that i am... having to say goodbye to something i am very passionate about is just a part that i err...so forgive this mumbling heart...


I dream of a house of our own...a four bedroom house with a garden for the cats to freely roam and a closed pool for me to swim in everyday... i may not get it in this life...but a girl can dream, right???


Thank You for hopping by. Hope to see you again soon... :0)
