A beautiful story from the 2008 Beijing Olympics

I gotta admit I am a "Sport Junkies", I enjoy watching most sports. If you ask me about Olympics, my mind will just sprung up with various images and stories and basically I can go on and on about it. : P (due to my sporty childhood background and one past dream of mine....another day to tell)

And of course I have been following the 2008 Beijing Olympics whenever possible. Here's one beautiful story that I will mark as one to remember for from this year's Olympics game:

Olympic hero loses life savings (an article from New Zealand Herald)

The main point I want to emphasize from this article is not about pitying the great Hayden Roulston about him losing his saving. The thing I want to emphasize lies on page 2 of the article, about the good deeds the "tight five" has done in supporting the athlete. It really does remind one that despite some of the cruelties in this world, there are still tremendous lot of love, benevolence, faith and trust amongst the people in this world. : ) Or in Chinese I would use the saying "人間有情"! Good on you Hayden Roulston for sticking to it and good on the "tight five" for doing the good deeds!!!
