on august 28, the 17th paralympic games opened in paris, france.
for some people, the paralympics may not attract their attention. indeed, from a certain perspective, the paralympics may not be as aesthetically pleasing as the olympics for healthy people. however, if you broaden your horizons, you will get a different understanding.
since 1960, every city that hosts the olympic games has held a paralympic games as a "standard feature". why hold the paralympic games? first of all, it comes from the international community's growing awareness of "equality". according to statistics, there are about 1.2 billion people with disabilities living in the world, accounting for 15% of the world's population. despite the astonishing number, this group is still ignored and even discriminated against in society. the paralympic games provide a platform for people with disabilities to showcase their talents and potential. people with disabilities also have the right and opportunity to participate in sports. through training and competition, they can show their skills and spirit in the paralympic games. this not only helps to enhance the self-confidence and self-esteem of people with disabilities, but also inspires more people with disabilities to actively participate in sports activities and improve their quality of life. secondly, the paralympic games can attract social attention and understanding of people with disabilities. by watching the paralympic games, people can have a deeper understanding of the lives and challenges of people with disabilities and the tenacity and courage they show when facing difficulties. this helps to break the prejudice and discrimination against people with disabilities in society and promote the integration of people with disabilities into society.
therefore, the paralympic games is not only a feast of sports competition, but also a profound display of the value of life, unyielding will and fighting spirit. in this battlefield without gunpowder, disabled athletes from all over the world interpret to the world what "life never stops, struggle never stops" with courage and perseverance.
hunan has sent 14 outstanding athletes to participate in the event. they will run fast on the track and break waves in the swimming pool. they will water their dreams with sweat and write legends with persistence. they are also our pride.
"two olympics, equally wonderful." paying attention to the paralympics means paying attention to the flowers of life that bloom in adversity. it makes us realize that the value of life does not lie in external perfection, but in inner strength and the persistent pursuit of dreams. in this era full of challenges and opportunities, we can draw strength from the paralympic athletes and maintain a tenacious heart and move forward courageously in the face of difficulties and challenges.
