As a gymnast in a former life, the Olympics have always held a wonderful set of feelings for me. I enjoy reflecting on the vastness of the world as I watch each opening ceremony. I speak French, having lived overseas for a couple years, and I really love hearing the French as the first language used for announcements.
As a martial artist, I have fascination and respect for the Chinese and their history. The opening ceremony’s artistic portion was phenomenal. I loved the moving printing blocks, and the varied forms of 和 (harmony) displayed.
