had not followed the issue of allocation of the 2016 Olympic Games and when I heard the news tonight randomly, I witnessed something extraordinary that even when the games were awarded to Athens, I've seen.
I saw him cry Pele '.
I saw tears hugging Pele 'President Lula.
I heard the Brazilian President to declare: "If I die now, it would be worth it to live"
I write so many things but I can never explain what the images have shown.
When Pele weeps like a child because his country will host the Olympics and when the President of a country like Brazil, for the same reason, states that "if there is a good day to die, now it is," What can I add me to explain what it means and what "αρχαιο πνευμα αθανατο", that is the ancient immortal spirit of Olympia? HOW GREEK
I felt honored, and proud INVOLVED.
E. ..... I cried!
And I am not being right-thinking progressives and the left to smash the Olympics accused of business.
course I'm a bargain for the country that hosts them.
But I am also a burden and an honor.
President Lula is not the capitalist who rubs his hands thinking for collection.
Lula and Pele would not have cried for money.
And now, all standing!
The Olympic anthem: Oh
ancient immortal spirit, pure father
of beauty, grandeur and truth,
go down, and revealed as the lightning
Blind us with your glory on earth and the sky t'appartengono. In run, and in struggling to launch,
instant shine supreme in these noble spaces
and crowned with evergreen branch
and make the body worthy, steel, and make the body worthy
and steel. plains, mountains
and seas shine with you as a big temple and white and pink
come to this temple, your pilgrims flock and
this time, your pilgrims are
all nations, oh ancient immortal spirit, all nations are
, oh ancient immortal spirit.
