I noticed something special in the month of August. Everyone knows
there was the Olympics, but there was something else after that.
Yes, I agree, the Olympics were awesome! The athletes did their best
and all and came to do what they do. But not a lot of people recognized
something that happened after the Olympics were over: The Para-Olympics.
The Para-Olympics are the same as the Olympics. But the athletes
are disabled, not the same as the people at the earlier Olympics. The
athletes in the Para-Olympics train twice as hard because it's not as
easy for them to do what other people do.
Everyone watched the great athletes, but most didn't watch those who
have struggled to get where they are today!
The Para-Olympians trained really hard and some of them seem to me to
be just as
good as some of the Olympians are who went to Athens.
No offense to anyone from the Olympics, or to anyone that didn't watch
the Para-Olympics, but it's too bad that some people would rather watch
the "Normal"
Olympians rather than the "Special" Olympians. Honestly, it was just as
fun watching the Para-Olympics as the Olympics!
Thank you,
