Hi there!
It's Neko, and yeah, I'm a cat.
I want to try one thing but I'm afraid to do it yet I'm still going to tell you.
So basically, the world branded cats as beings afraid of water and of the rain.
Well, I'm not really afraid of such but if you mean water as ocean and the sea, that is, well, a truth I can't run from.
Yes, I am afraid of the sea, I mean, I love it in a sense that I am not in it, I am not inside its world, swimming with the fishes and the creatures of the sea. I don't even know how to swim. I am afraid of the lost of oxygen, I am afraid of not breathing, I am afraid that I would suffocate and die within its world that makes me imagine being in a belly of a Lochness monster or of Scylla or of Charybdis. Despite the fear I just written, I am amazed at the beauty of the ocean's depth, of the beautiful corals, of sea plants, of the exquisite formation of reefs and of the different colors of those swimming creatures that some comes to my mind as delicious when cooked. Remember, I'm a cat and the world brands cats as fish-eaters, well, in a sense, yes, I love eating seafoods.
I really want to swim, to dive and see through a goggle, the world within the ocean, with tanks containing the gas oxygen within and breathe from it. I want to cave dive and break records of diving a thousand and five hundred deep into the oceans' floor, maybe, even touching it. I want to feel what cave divers feel when they're with the water, all around them, the blackness of its world, or the grayish or greenish or bluish yet blackish colour of the ocean. And still feel so comfortable in it, even having the euphoric feeling and being high just because they're there. I want to feel that.
I have always wanted that but I can't swim, I have those fears that most say as an excuse to live differently. They really can't understand. But well, not to generalize, of course. You know what I mean, there are still some who understand.
So, that's it?
I guess, yes, since it asks to tell one thing I want to try but am afraid to.
Diving.
That's the answer I gave.
So, yes, I'm gonna end it here for now and I hope some day or one day, I would come back and tell you that I have done what I fear to do all my life. A fear that comes along with awe, wonder and amazement of that one I am afraid of.
You know I'm a cat, right? So I bet you're thinking funny thoughts... Or maybe, I'm wrong.
I also get wet. Believe me, I like being wet most times, and play under the rain and with the rain, but, of course, you wouldn't know that.
Okay. Now I need to have my nap.
Ciao. Meeeeeoooow! Sayonara... You.
