| Prompt: The Winter Olympics are almost here. What Winter Olympic sports will you be watching,? Write about this in your Blog entry today. ----------- To tell the truth, I am not going to watch any Winter Olympics. In fact, I don't watch much TV at all. My husband, on the other hand, wouldn't miss any sports events. He really loved the TV, especially the Olympics, for he himself was a long-distance runner in his late teens. Which reminds me of his adoration for Jesse Owens who upset Hitler's White Supremacy obsession during the !936 Olympics in Berlin by winning four Olympic medals that year. That might have been God's preliminary warning to racists, which must have been to alert them to the final result of World War II. I guess, black or white, or any color, doesn't a hero make. It is the person, the human being with his mettle, who is the most important. As for me and TV watching, I have never sat in front of a TV, unless I was doing something else as well. But I did sit next to my husband while he watched...always. As I sat across from the TV, then, I could have been writing down ideas, eating, knitting, sewing, peeling veggies. etc. I liked to stop what I was doing and watched figure skating, however. Nowadays, after my husband, I only have the TV on to news while eating supper. Considering today's news and happenings all around the world, it is a miracle I didn't get any ulcers...yet! |
