I know,many of you may have such type of experience in your own life as mine. However, I have faced it almost three times or more till now and wish not to get any more. First i experienced it, in my early childhood, then i was a 8-year old little girl.We went to another district where my father was posted.There was a big pond in front of his residence.That year we spend our summer vacation over there and we went through a lot of new experiences,one of them was swimming.

One fine morning,my younger brother and i along with our housemaid went to swimming without informing our parents. We took it as an adventure and set out. That time  i could not swim, my brother knew little how to place him on the water surface and which was unknown to us, the old maid did not know how to swim at all! So, you may be able to get me by this time, how did it come to us. At first i was about to sink after that  my brother and finally that old woman, we all were in danger , we were trying to reach on the bank but could not able. In spite of it, some water already had entered in to our stomachs, how terrified we were! But luckily, there were two people on the other side of this pond who observed the situation and hurriedly came to our rescue. As the pond was too big it took some time to be reached, in the mean time i faced more difficulty as  that lady and i were trying to hold each other. But, at last those persons were able to save our life and i have learned how  precious our life is!
