One World, One Dream

You knew there would be a fantastic firework display, but I think everyone is in awe of the 15,000 performers who orchestrated an incredible show that mixed history, culture, the future, and art all into one. For some incredible images click here and here.


Then amongst all that grandness you learn about a little 9 year old, Lin Hao, who was sitting at his desk when the earthquake caused his school to collapse on his class. He was able to pull himself out to safety, but returned to get 2 of his classmates out. His reason: "I am one of the class leaders and a hall monitor, it was my responsibility to help."
