Inspired by the Olympics

If you have had the chance to watch any of the 2026 Olympic Winter Games in Milan-Cortina, you have seen both the “thrill of victory” and the “agony of defeat.” I can only imagine what the athletes have thought and felt when extremely narrow margins have determined the outcomes of these competitions.
