When somebody tells me I cannot do something, that's when I do it.
To me, the sea is like a person - like a child that I've known a long time. It sounds crazy, I know, but when I swim in the sea I talk to it. I never feel alone when I'm out there.
People said women couldn't swim the Channel, but I proved they could.
I just knew if it could be done, it had to be done, and I did it
I have no complaints. I am comfortable and satisfied. I am not the kind of person who reaches for the moon as long as I have the stars.
Slowly I came to know that the depth of our heartbreaks determines the depth of our faith. God gives us everything to conquer the big and the little hurts of life.
When we're in the water, we're not in this world.
