Congratulations Michael Phelps

Relief…the outcome of no more what if scenarios. The chase for eight is complete. This year’s events all began on 08.08.08 and now Michael Phelps is eight for eight. It was a remarkable race by Aaron Peirsol, Brendan Hansen, Michael Phelps, and Jason Lezak. China’s Water Cube didn’t have an empty seat. You know something special is happening when Kobe and LeBron are among the spectators. It’s more than national pride or interest in a particular sport. It’s a moment shared by human spectators of all backgrounds around the world; a moment to pause and cheer for a fellow human being as greatness is realized in capturing a life’s dream through dedication. What a journey! And, just because I have been posting the medal status throughout my postings I conclude by saying, “Zero to go!”
