Dear student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query:
Once Douglas was sitting alone at the Y.M.C.A pool waiting for others to come. Then there came a big bruiser of a boy. He tossed him up and threw him into the deep end of the pool. Douglas went deep and swallowed water. He was at the sitting position at the bottom. He was frightened but was not out of his wits. On the way down, he had a strategy in his mind. When his feet touched the bottom, he would make a great spring upward. Then he would paddle to the edge of the pool, but he came up slowly. He opened his eyes and saw dirty water. He was deeply frightened. His legs seemed paralysed. A great force was pulling him down. A stark power overpowered him. He shrieked in the water but only the water heard him. After feeling the tiles under his feet, he jumped withal his might but it made no difference. His lungs ached and heart throbbed. Stark terror took him in its grip. His legs and arms could not move. He again tried for the third time. He searched for air but swallowed water. He felt drowsy and ceased all efforts. He was crossed to oblivion. The curtain of his life fell and he lay unconscious. The fear of dying, which struck William Douglas while going down the Y.M.C.A pool intensified his urge to live and thus, he tried all the ways possible to come up and save himself. Douglas not withstanding his aversion to water and extreme exhaustion, keeps on conquering his fear of water and finally emerges victorious. Douglas possessed resilience, courage and the stubbornness to overcome his fear. Thus he succeeded in overcoming his fear of water.
