Why Not Break out of that Rut!
- by Kathy

 

"Who, me? Water sports? You've gotta be kidding!"

I always considered myself a non-athlete, a true couch potato. Spare time? Give me a book to read or hand over that remote control! When a friend of mine suggested I try sea kayaking with her, I just laughed.

After the recent breakup of my marriage, however, I found myself with more spare time than books or dumb TV shows could fill. I said, "Why Not!" to my friend one day and agreed to meet her at the kayak rental place. Just to watch, of course!

When I got there, I saw lots of non-jock types there having a great time. I decided to try it myself, and I was surprised how easy and fun it was. I've been kayaking a few times now, and have made some nice new friends. I'm glad I took the plunge (pardon the bad pun) and said, "Why Not!"
