- Oh, but I'm scared.
- Don't be afraid, you'll love it!
- But..., but... what if I'm no good?
- You'll be fine. Don't worry.
- I don't know what to do.
- Just follow my lead, do like I do. You'll want to do it all the time afterwards, you'll see.
- But... but...
- Come on now, don't be such a baby, besides... you know you wanna!
So, with great trepidation, I took the leap of no return.
At first a feeling of dread, of spiraling down into emptiness.
Then I started to push, up... down... up... down... in a great rhythmic motion.
I started to rise.
I started to soar.
Wow! I can't believe this, it's awesome! Oooohhhh! OOOooohhhh! OOOOOooooohhhh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
