let's relax and be 'frivolous' tonight! Let's talk about World Cup 2014!
1. Brazil is in the semi-final
There were forces against the World Cup in Brazil as they felt the money could have gone into more meaningful projects that will spread real benefits among a larger population that need those helps than the many 'just' Brazil football fans!
Some of they in fact are STILL carrying out protests and demonstrations to try to focus the world press on their causes while the world, at least the sporting world, is very much focusing on Brazil 2014 World Cup! Everyone that should be there are there to report on this tournament! Including many perhaps should not be are also there! LOL!!
While the joy is immense for Brazil to be in the semi-final, there was a dark cloud, a very dark one. They lost their best player and, I would say, an emotional 'spiritual' leader, to a very bad foul on him, Neymar. The young man whom I believed is BORN to be in this World Cup. A year when it is held in HIS country!
So much miseries and poverties STILL in Brazil. IF they win the World Cup, and it will be an unprecedented 6-time and broke their own record of 5!, it will bring much JOY to the many poor and impoverished people. At least for a day or a week! Reasons to party and let loose!
2. Argentina is through to the semi-final too this morning.
Another young man born for World Cup is Messi of Argentina. He has won ALL that could be won as a footballer, and a gentleman too, except a World Cup trophy. Neymar and him are team mates in the great Barcelona Football Team.. In fact, Messi wishes for a Brazil vs. Argentina Final, which may not pen out as Germany and most likely Holland (if it won against Costa Rica later this morning at 4 a.m.) have other ideas!
Messi is great as he really knows how to get out of being injured by intentional or unintentionally over-physical challenges by defenders whose jobs are to stop him, besides being a magician with the football.
This World Cup so far is the MOST exciting one bar NONE. It was so exciting that I, a dormant fan, got resurrected and followed the last 16 till now.
If ONLY we can TRANSFER the PASSION for a sport like Football to living out a Healthy Lifestyle, being a good human being/workers/parents/friends, the world will be a much better one.
A dream worth dreaming about at rest while exemplifying the dream through real deeds, actions and behaviours. May the world be a better place due to our efforts.
