Sports have been with us pretty much since the begining of our civilization but now became bigger than ever before. Nowdays we can watch a game of football for example that is being played tousands of kilometers away. That's amazing because we are able to expirience sports like never until now and that's cool. But to me what is cooler is the phenomenon of cheering for sombody or some team. I think it is special because we don't know those people in person, we don't know who they really are like but still, we take time out of our day to spend it watching them compete with others. This is in my opinion the true magic of sports. Not the competition or the fact that you can win something etc. But the fact that it truly unites people from all countries, parts of the globe, from different cultures and religions. It just doesn't have any boundaries and that is what makes it so magical and special.
"This road is too narrow", "Why didn't they build a bigger path for pedestrians here?", "Who designed the centre of this city? There is always so much traffic". I think we all heard or said something along these lines in our lives. We like to complain about the way a city or a town was planned but we don't realise that it isn't the easiest thing to do most of the times. City isn't built at once. Neither it is planned at once. It means that it will always change and will have to be adapted to always changing requirements of the people. For example architects two centuries ago didn't expect that today there will be cars in such big numbers on the streets so it is obvious that the roads built then are not able to handle the modern day challenges. There are more examples like that so I think we should be more forgiving next time we'll be stuck in traffic in the old part of the city.
I wish I could share your enthusiasm! Unfortunately, when I watch a football game now, the main thing I can think about is how corrupt this business is and how the money spent on these footballers could be used for a better purpose. Sorry!!!
OdpowiedzUsuńI can uderstand your point of view. There is a big problem with corruption in the current world of sport but I hope that there will be changes finally to fix this issue.
UsuńVery nice point! For me, It's all about good company to watch a match with. Alse, we shouldn't take such things like football too serious.
