I don't watch much soccer other than my children's games and the occassional professional game that we take them to, but the excitement of today's first world cup game in South Africa was electric! The games are about more than just soccer...they are about the unity of people from all backgrounds and cultures coming together, partying together and uniting as one human race for the game they love. We let borders divide us and let our differences define us. This event shows us how united we can be. Even those who are not soccer enthusiasts can feel it...we are all South Africans today!
