Meaning and Beauty is Everywhere

As I watched an opening game of World Cup Soccer while running on the treadmill at the health club (there was no audio), I witnessed a scene so impressive it literally stopped me in my tracks.  As the two teams of players walked simultaneously out onto the field, each athlete was holding the hand of a young boy dressed in his own soccer uniform.  The juxtaposition between the strong, confident, expert and the young protégé, looking up to his companion in great pride and admiration as he hustled to keep up with the athletic strut, was profound.  In these few moments at the start of a popular sport was the representation of life’s circle of wisdom and growth.  The height of physical health and perfection  walked hand-in-hand with the rising generation of future World Cup contenders whose journey to this moment was essentially just beginning.  The comparisons which could be made to this scene, and the depth of truths represented, made this perhaps the most dramatic moment of the entire tournament.
