The Opening Ceremony

I translated a part of an article on the Japanese newspaper about the opening ceremony of the Olympic games.

There was a scene that moved me in this opening ceremony.

When the woman's flag - bearer for the Iranian contingent entered into the stadium, before a large audience, she was filled  with emotion and had tears well in her eyes.

It happened in a moment to be on the television. But people in the world must have seen her tears.

Nobody knows the reason of the tears except her. But we can imagine how much she had made effort until she gose on this big stage.

I wanted to cheer for her. I sincerely hope I'll cheer for her.

And her tears seemed like tears of everyone who stands on this stadium.

There is no one who doesn't stand here without their efforts.

Just as I noticed so, the opening ceremony seemed to be completely different untill then.
