There was this one time where we've thrown a party to celebrate my Aunt's 35th birthday. Everyone was so excited with the event that even I myself could not sleep the night before the day of event. By the time we arrived the resort, I hurriedly took off my shirt and before I could run my mom told me that, "don't go to the deep parts because you might drown", then I just nodded my head and playfully ran into the shore with my cousins. When we reached the shore, we joyfully dove in and splashed water to each other's faces. After doing that, we got bored and planned to follow our cousins which by that time where at the deep parts of the sea. Thinking it was not dangerous to follow them we proceeded with our plan. So as we go along, we've noticed that the water gets deeper and deeper as we get nearer to our cousins. So we've decided to just stop there and headed back to the shore. Then the water suddenly becomes deeper to the point that our feet could not reach the sand anymore. Shocked by the happening, I just swam and selfishly left my two cousins there not thinking if they could also survive. As soon as I reached the shallow part, I made a quick glance to see if my cousins were just fine and thank God they were. Scared that we might get scolded, we kept that secret to ourselves and told nobody about it.
Funny how I just laugh about what has happened to us. Since that incident, I never go to the deep part of the ocean anymore. As for the lessons I've learned, you should always listen to what your parents instructed you.
