Koohii stories:

1) [astridtops] 25-3-2007(91): The courageous man who went into the water to save a drowning victim couldn't be seen, except by the air that bubbled up.

2) [richcoop] 2-6-2009(29): Bubble up the WATER and see who has the COURAGE to jump into it.

3) [dihutenosa] 28-7-2008(15): [+astrid] A very courageous man dove to the bottom of the water to save someone who had fallen in (and couldn't swim). The whole crowd was watching..30 seconds…a minute…1:20…are they both dead? Suddenly, a huge bubble rose to the surface, with the nearly-drowned victim - he bubbled up to the surface, in a bubble blown by the courageous man! And then soon after, the hero him self bubbled up. What a great story!

4) [einahpets] 28-2-2012(4): Water bubbling up is like a metaphor for being courageous, having a strength that will bubble up in times of need.

5) [icamonkey] 25-8-2009(3): Think of the first time someone has to bubble up enough courage to take that first step into the water.
