I always get a thrill seeing these wonderful young athletes representing their countries.
Tonight, I was touched and saddened by Georgia's representatives.
I thought they showed wonderful courage by marching...but I could see the pain and grief in their faces.
This time, for the first time, as each country passed, I thought of my friends here on MR. I was so proud for all the countries.
Ravenne and others from Germany
Vcat and her father and so many others from Canada.
France.
England.
Ireland.
All of them.
Made it kinda special.
