We’re definitely well into the Olympics, with being more than halfway through and having less than a week to go until the closing ceremony.
While having to practice for cello exam hasn’t afforded me time to catch as much of the Olympics as I would’ve liked to, I’ve loved whatever I’ve managed to catch of it – my favorite events now are probably gymnastics and synchronized diving + swimming (:
I love everything that the Olympics represents: patience, determination, perseverance, excellence, hard work, courage, strength, healthy competition, dreaming big.
I think the Olympic Creed says it best:
“The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.“
Love that last line.
I hope you’re embracing the Olympic Spirit as much you can while it lasts!
