The moment that changed my way of thinking

A few months ago, at the summer vacations.... I was walking with my family, and found a river where we could swim. Until then I saw life as boring and pointless, but after that day everything changed.
I thought I could swim in the deeper waters but I was unlucky and started drowning, I was about to die .... but I lived and I could change my way of thinking, I began to appreciate my life
