When one reads the newspapers, the front pages are usually filled with grim news of political
intrigues, conflicts and confrontation.  It makes for dismal reading.  I'm filled with nausea.
Turning to the back pages, on the sports news, one reads on the triumphs of the athletes.
We read and rave on the achievements of our world number one badminton player,
Lee Chong Wei and our Nicol David, the world number one squash champion. Their
achievements make for inspiring reading.  The superb performance of Rafael Nadal,
Roger Federer in the sports of tennis, too, are a pleasure to read.  These athletes are
passionate about their chosen sport and enjoyed every minute of it -  and reaped the
rewards.  Great!
