Roadtrip...

When I was 15 was going on a trip with my baseball team to Los Angeles, California, had been the longest trip I'd done about 12 hours on an airplane,desperate to get to leave the plane and put me in a bad mood hungry, when we were close to reaching the pilot announced that there were only 10 minutes offlight passed about 10 seconds and the plane began to fall into an "empty" avacuum is when the plane is not air and begins to fall as engines had beenturned off and then panic because I was only 15 years and never knew what was happening and the empty drive some 30 seconds until the pilot managed to takecontrol of the plane. For me this event was the strongest that could have happened to me throughout my life and the more I agree.

I did not remember the exact age when it happens, but I think I was like 15 years old when I had my first experience that makes me reflects about death. I was in playa Mar Bella in Vega Baja having a fun day with my friends during the summer. My friends and I decided to go to a rock named “El Corsario”. It is a very dangerous place, where many people die. It is a giant rock from about 30 feet from the water, where the people go and jump in into the furious ocean.

When I get there it seems easy and fun and after a long time thinking about it, I decided to jump in. It was a wonderful experience, everything seems to be normal. When I was trying to get out of the water everything changes. I was climbing in the rocks when big waves came and push me into the rocks. In that moment it was only me and the ocean. I was in a big silence thinking about what to do. I realize that if I want to get out alive I needed to stay away of the rocks, but it was no easy the strong currents and the big waves make it very hard. I stayed down there like 5 minutes fighting for my life and for me it seem like one hour. Hopefully in one moment the ocean calm down and I went out with an horror face. My legs and back suffered a lot of injuries.

This experience increases my respect for the ocean and it wonders. I would never go into that rock again. I already learn the lesion, ocean dominates us completely and we have nothing to do in that kind of situation. I gave a lot thanks to God that gave me the opportunity to get out of there.
