The Olympics


Watching the olympics makes me realize what true sacrifice and dedication is. These athletes give up everything else in life to compete at such a high level and they excel at their chosen sport. I know I am guilty of thinking I have given up things in life and it was hard, these people make me realize I don't truely know what sacrifice is. I wish I could say I could be that dedicated to something, but honestly I'm not sure that I could. One of the female athletes that was just on is only 18 yrs old. Can you imagine the pressure, at that age on this large of a stage, to perform well? It amazes me what these people are capable of. I love watching the Olympics, summer or winter games, and now I have a new appreciation for the people that compete in these sports. Not to mention they make me want to find something in my life to be really driven about and to have such a strong dedication to. Now I just have to figure out what exactly that would be! :)
