UTTERLY AMAZING!!!!!!
All of it. from the first fuse the the last person sweeping up the floor. I wish we could have peace like this everyday.The way the athleats mixed themselfs up into a multicultural loving group. I want to shout from the roof tops, see people, see, there is a common ground. We can be one people. We are human, we will have differances, but do we need to blow each other up to get out point accross, or can we find a common ground and just work it out. Lets Leave here and take the love of the world with us. If we nuture it, the love for each person can grow, and grow!
