I love true enthusiasm. Watching the Olympic you get to see raw emotion. These athletes are giving it their all, and when they are rewarded, that's when the tears start. The other side of the coin is when one of the sprinters falls in the final race. They have practiced for 4 years only to trip and falls. There are no do overs. For some of these, it is the dream of a lifetime. Imagine, at 16, you have reached the peak. All your greatest joys, your greatest success and failures before the age of 21. How do the rest of us go on living? I would think that the greatest success for these athletes is what they do with the rest of their lives.
