Seeing athletes of their own nation stepping onto the championship podium one by one, raising the national flag, playing the national anthem, hanging gold medals, and wearing olive branch crowns, There is indeed a feeling of "everything is always spring".

We must realize that there is actually a gold medal that is more precious than hanging around the neck, that is, the gold medal in the heart. The gold medal contains the national self-esteem and patriotism, but the main ingredient is the affinity and friendliness to other nations, and to the world. It includes appreciation for others, learning of their strengths, sympathy and understanding for temporary backwardness and temporary failure.This time, the performance of the Rwandan swimmer was far behind other competitors, and it can be said that she created a record for the slowest time in the world.

After she finished swimming, she happily told everyone that she was The fastest swimmer in their country!As a result, the organizing committee decided to award her the pair of mascots originally issued to the champion. What a beautiful scene!
