I cry a lot every night, watching Paralympic games, but tears in hope and joy. Oh, Rachael Watson is my superhero, Australian Paralympic gold medallist, 50m freestyle, overcoming disability. "Never give up," "if you put your heart into it and you just try and try and try, you can achieve whatever you want in your life.” I believe in possibility and will walk on my own feet till the end of my life! When Libby Hathorn and I visited Japan for Basho research, a friend gave me the Olympics and the Paralympics symbol badge. Now, it's my treasure! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachael_Watson毎晩 #パラリンピックを見ては, 嬉しい #希望 の #涙 を 流しています. とりわけ, 私達 Australian の #レーチェル・ワトソン #50m自由型 の #金メダリスト は私の #スーパーヒーロー です. レイチェルが言います, “絶対にあきらめちゃダメよ,” “もし, 自分の心を打ちこんで, くじけず, もっと, 更に, がんばって やれば, 何だって, あなたがしたいと望むことは人生でできるのよ." 彼女は 見ごと, 障がいを 克服しているのです. すごい. 私, レイチェルの インタビューを 聞いて泣きました, 今だって. ようし, 私だって, やるわ. きっと この足で, 一生力強く歩いてみせるわ!!
How cool to have the badges! And the painting made me smile to see your sneakers and brace and know this is a portrait of your own strength and resilience :).
