strained stretched and tattered
still the world seeks common ground
let the games go on

    Although neither the world, nor the games, are quite as noble as perhaps they might be, I find the fact that they both still exist — an encouraging sign.

    I’m of the hopeful mind that as long as the world continues willing to meet peacefully on the field of sport — their is still a real chance for humankind to find a way to live, someday, in peace.

    I’m still a proponent that we give peace a chance.

    Hi back! 😉

    I’m glad you appreciated my little statement here. I agree, as long as countries still embrace the trappings of civility, there is the promise and hope of genuine civility — maybe even an outbreak of profound humanity.
