Playing in the water with friends and family is such a joyous, carefree experience of abandon. What matters is having fun with your favorite people (and pups), not what you look like!
One of my favorite things about the Voyages is the complete lack of judgement onboard. Some people wiggle and jiggle, some people are cut and tone. Everyone feels free and easy and welcome. And, we all jump into the sea whenever we feel so inclined--regardless of what we're wearing at the time.
Sometimes it doesn’t take courage to try new things so much as a willingness to shed worry about looking silly. I had to let go of self consciousness to become my best Jane on the rope swing. What if I fell off the rope? What if I wasn’t strong enough? What if people laugh?
What if I stopped doing anything new and fun? That is a much bigger worry!!
