The olympics are here again! It’s always a thrill to watch the best of the best perform as olympians representing their home countries. It’s amazing to feel this sense of nationalism by living through the spirit of the people performing for Canada. Watching them, feeling their pain and joy throughout the games. I always felt lucky to be a Canadian and to have the opportunities that have been provided to me that I take for granted that other people would show immense gratitude to experience.
It’s so weird to feel so suddenly nationalistic when for most of my life this feeling just gets tucked away somewhere in the back of my mind. It’s something that i’ve always known, but seldom experience.
