Olympian Dependency

Olympic moments now here, then gone under a spotlight intense as the sun Years of sweat, dedication and training geared toward a finish culminating In a medal or two, or three if you’re great ~ all dependent on timing, focus and fate

Yes, everything must align, and yet nothing is wasted with the pursuit if winning isn't your only focus, but keeping your integrity intact. Tears flood for both the winners and losers - the intensity of performance. Well done!

As a former competitive swimmer I got a taste of what athletes go through to achieve their athletic goals. I decided to join the working world rather than go to swimming practice at 6 in the morning, then 5 in the evening. I respect athletes who hang in there. Superb write, Gershon. Have a blessed Shabbat. :))))
