I absolutely love the Olympics!!!! I so admire someone who has taken the time and patience to train that hard for all the years it takes to become that good. It is so inspiring to know that we still have so many young people who aspire to become champions, and not just do as little as possible to get by. Stories like the runner who broke his leg and still finished the race are just fantastic. Watching the special touches like the humor in the Canadian synchronized swimming routine was so delightful. The grace of the gymnastic athletes bowls me over. I think it is a time to celebrate the achievements of the human race. We can be great when we try. How wonderful to be reminded again!
