5 Rings...

**5 rings**

5 rings...

5 hopes...5 peoples coming together...

millions of people watching...thousands in the stands...

all there to support and cheer...

hope for all humanity in one single event...across lands and oceans and in the air...

a trek to put fire in the belly of the moment, a fire to drive, to push, to let thrive...

moments to cry, moments to cheer, moments to know the power of life standing still, and moments to see the light within...

music to drive, music to determine, ice to be scorned, air to be sliced, snow to be flown, seconds between moments of estacy and misery...

the power of the games is all this and more...a part of humanity for thousands of years, a symbol of unity and of hope...

2010 is not just another year...it's another moment...to reflect these things...and go beyond, make the moments...and find the light within ourselves...to reflect what they are all about...
