The impact of hitting the bottom of the lake brought me from my thoughts, I watched as the cloud of sediment that was disturbed swirled upward like a cloud of smoke from a fire, before it disappeared. I took a deep breath, staring mindlessly out into the depths of the lake, grateful at least that I had landed 'right side up' It was bad enough being down here, but to be face down would make it worse, if that were possible.
Strange how when we are at our lowest possible ebb comfort can be found in the smallest and most unusual things.
