She was drowning.
And nobody noticed…
Nobody, except her.

It was June 2022, at the World Championships in Budapest.
Anita Álvarez, an American artistic swimmer with Mexican roots, was performing a flawless routine.
But when her performance ended… she didn’t come up for air.

She had lost consciousness.
Her body floated for a few seconds, then began to sink.
Slowly. All the way to the bottom of the pool.

The audience didn’t notice. Neither did the judges.
Everyone was clapping.

But her coach, Andrea Fuentes, noticed.
She knew Anita—knew exactly how long it took her to surface.
She felt in her heart that something was wrong.

Without thinking twice, she dove in.
Fully dressed. Shoes and all.

She swam straight down, grabbed Anita by the waist,
and brought her back up.
She saved her life.

This story left me thinking…

Who knows you well enough to notice when you’re not okay, even if you’re still smiling?
Who would dive in for you without hesitation when you no longer have the strength to come up for air?

And more importantly…

Would you be that person for someone else?
Are you present enough in your loved ones’ lives to sense the moment they start to sink?
Or are you just another spectator, clapping, not realizing that inside, they’re fading?

In this life, we all need someone who doesn’t just see us—
but truly notices us.
Someone who knows when we’re about to give up,
and has the courage to jump in and save us.

YOUR MOM MAKES ME HAPPY*

*Episode 4: A Family Affair*

Omar decided it was time for Sarah to meet his family. He was excited to introduce her to the people he loved, and he hoped they would love her just as much.

As they arrived at his parents' house, Omar's mom, Fatima, greeted them with a warm smile. "It's so nice to finally meet you, Sarah!" she exclaimed, hugging her tightly.

Sarah was charmed by Fatima's warmth and hospitality. She felt at ease as they sat down for dinner, surrounded by Omar's family. Ahmed, Omar's dad, asked Sarah questions about her interests and hobbies, and she impressed him with her intelligence and kindness.

As the evening progressed, Omar watched Sarah laugh and joke with his family, feeling grateful that they seemed to get along so well. He knew that his family was important to him, and it meant a lot that they liked Sarah.

After dinner, Fatima pulled Omar aside and whispered, "She's lovely, beta (son). You two seem perfect for each other."

Omar smiled, feeling happy that his mom approved. "Thanks, Mom. I'm really falling for her."

Fatima smiled back. "I can see that. Just remember, relationships take work, but if you both are committed, you can build a beautiful life together."

Omar nodded, taking his mom's words to heart. He knew that he wanted to spend the rest of his life making Sarah happy, and he hoped she felt the same way...

YOUR MOM MAKES ME ME HAPPY

*Episode 3: A Deeper Connection*

As the days turned into weeks, Omar and Sarah's relationship blossomed. They spent countless hours exploring the city, trying new restaurants, and laughing together. Omar felt like he was getting to know Sarah on a deeper level, and he was amazed by their connection.

One evening, as they sat on the couch, watching a movie, Omar turned to Sarah and asked, "What makes you happy?"

Sarah thought for a moment before responding, "I find happiness in the little things – a beautiful sunset, a good book, or a warm cup of coffee on a chilly morning. But most of all, I find happiness in the people I love and who love me back."

Omar's heart swelled with emotion. He felt like he had found someone who understood the importance of love and connection. He leaned in and kissed her, feeling a spark of electricity run through his body.

As they pulled back, Sarah smiled and said, "I love the way you make me feel. You have a way of calming my nerves and making me feel like everything will be okay."

Omar's heart skipped a beat. He knew that he felt the same way about her. He took her hand and said, "I love the way you make me feel too. You bring light and joy into my life."

As they sat there, wrapped in each other's arms, Omar knew that he was falling deeply in love with Sarah. He couldn't wait to see what the future held for them...
