Innovators II

For over 100 years Olympians have provided the world heroic feats. "Faster, higher, and stronger"... in prosuit of excellence has become the title to bear. The model found in sports provides us a plan to resolve our differences through play. People everywhere can learn the lessons of equality, dignity, discipline and respect so required to obtain our wish of the day.

The Olympics breach all political, geographical, social, and cultural divides. A simple oath bonds athletes together in a contest of cooperative competition. The fruits of victory are more often bequeathed in the participants' soul rather than what's deposited in their pockets.

Living and leading by example is the best weapon to conquer fear or foe! This is the purpose of an Olympian, and the mission of theWorld Olympians Association.
