When to dive into cold waters

Sometimes, a single decision can be quite a tough task to handle. Even if it's just the question to jump into the water or to let it be. Just think of adding one, two degrees of temperature, a bit snow and an already wet diving suit. One problem is, you'll get cold feet either way you decide. Anyway, in the water not only the fish will wonder why you're doing this.
Is it better to stay out of trouble? Maybe when it comes to an issue of life and death, but on the other hand you'll miss an adventure not many can tell of. Still, making decisions based on future maybe-stories is probably a silly idea. Silly, because you could save yourself the trouble and still tell everybody about it later, like it really happened. Nevertheless, almost every time it's best to decide, even if you might realise it was a bad decision afterwards. Because, hey, no decision in front of a hungry lion and you might lose your head twice. Speaking of, it's easy said, but screaming might help at least of all. Particularly underwater. But also everywhere else, I think. It might just help to get attention of the wrong type of animal.

After all, decisions help us to evolve in life. Except you decide to move backwards eventually. Nevertheless, even moving backwards can make us better - at backwards-walking, or may help us to turn in the right direction. Whatever you do, don't try to meet your maker, cause that's a pretty huge step in any direction.
Don't yell at fish.
