I set out in life like many idealistic people, with the goal of helping people to live happier and more fulfilling lives. To that end, I've created this blog to spread a bit of cheer each day.

Hooray for Olympic sportsmanship!
I saw this clip of two runners who collided with each other during a race at the Olympics in Rio. I'm writing about it because I like how they helped each other up and finished the race. It reminded me of another incident in a past Olympic race where a man fell during the race because he'd injured his leg. His father came out of the stands and helped him finish his race. To me these athletes are winners. They got up and finished the race and I think people remember them more because they didn't give up and kept on going despite everything. They may not have finished first but they did finish strong!
