The opening ceremonies of the 2012 Olympic Games took place Friday
in London. Did you watch? I did.
With great anticipation, I look forward to the story the
host country will tell. How they will
portray themselves? What kind of magic
will happen that will light up the sky? I still remember the opening ceremonies from
past games that took place in France, US, and China. They did not disappoint.
Of course, every story needs a hero. Only with the Olympics, there are hundreds of
heroes and I’m swept up in their struggles, disappointments and triumphs. I am always captivated by an athlete’s quest
for perfection while a billion eyes watch every move they make. Talk about pressure. Whoa!
Till next time,
Elizabeth
I'm usually more of a winter Olympics kind of gal, but I hope to check out some highlights online this weekend. Go teams!
