So, the Olympics are over. Part of me is sad, and part is happy. I’ve never been a highly competitive person, nor a really great athlete, but I like watching the best in the world give it their all and show us what they can do. I like seeing people from different backgrounds and ideologies come together and compete as equals and sportsmen. I like seeing humans come together for at least a short time and celebrate all we can do with our bodies and what makes us all common.
I dislike ceremonies.
Now, as I write this, the closing ceremonies have just finished. This post won’t publish till Wednesday, so maybe things will change by then. As it stands now, I can’t find any pics of the closing ceremony online. Of course, considering how hard it is to pull up pics of other opening and closing ceremonies online, I might never be able to. [Editor's note: found them!]
