This.

I had no interest in figure skating before Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir skated into my life.

Maybe this is why we need the Olympics. To reach higher. To aspire to greater heights. To be the best we can be. To bring art and dance and sport together.

To elevate us.

And that’s what these two decorated Olympians did. They  made us better as people because they showed us, through a figure skate dance, how and why we can do more. As humans. As people.

This is what the Olympics is about.
