For context I work with young children.
I’m walking around doing my yard duty and one of them comes along with me to do my rounds, only a young one at about 6 years old.
We were just talking about what we do in our spare time or on weekends and holidays and wage tells me she does a lot no of swimming lessons.
I tell her that I’m no good at swimming and that I’ll probably never learn to do it properly. She promptly turns around and faces me and tells me never to give up and that I can do it one day.
Made my heart smile on the inside.
