I, too, wish I could get closer to the Olympic Flame. A large fence has been put between it and us. I would like to scream and shout at those responsible for this, but I also feel I need to comment on another amazing thing that is out of reach. Stonehenge was once at the fingertips of those who wanted to experience the power of the ancient stones. Now, we can still see it, but graffiti and vandalism has scarred it so that no truly respectful person can get near.
I would like to say I trust everyone, but, despite the good feeling towards the Olympics, there will be those who can't let anyone enjoy the sight or the moment. If the fence and "No Trespassing" sign go, can anyone guarantee that someone won't try to destroy it out of anger or on a drunken bet? How many more things will be out of reach because ignoramuses can't keep their hot little hands off of other people's pleasures?
