Just was watching Opening Ceremony of Rio Olympics.
I am thoroughly enjoying it.
Since Childhood I have the fascination of watching the opening ceremony and closing ceremonies of this big time games.
This time also I have liked it. I tried watching it on Youtube and Dailymotion but I did not find it. Then I tried Hotstar and am watching it on Hotstar. Thank you Hotstar.
I saw highlights on Star Sports and it was not worth it. A 4 hour show was truncated to 40 minutes.
Some points I can write from the experience.

Some points I can write from the experience.
- We have seen the powerful countries of the world US, China, France, Great Britain and we feel where are we as a nation which is India?
- Also many countries of the world are "countries" but the individual states of India though blessed with plenty of land and people can never even come close to being a country.
- We have to realise that our country of India provides a refuge to all of the states of India.
- Individually a state is like dust.
- But when the country as a whole is seen we have our identity and that is out tricolour flag and our culture and heritage and our constitution and so on.
- We get so much safety from our nation that our state does exist.
- We need to get above our regional and narrow differences and see the country as a whole and that gives us a sense of purpose and way to achieve a respectable identity in the world.
- Out there in Olympics even a 21 sq km country has an identity but our identity is India even if we have a 250,000 sq km state as our own.
- We need to respect our country India for that. Our India country gives us an identity no matter where we come from.
- Brazil and Rio are just great. Though people of various colours exist like white, brown and black we do not find any conflict like we see in US for example.
- Race relations are very important for a country to exist. I mean US may be developed country but if race is not respected than it would be worse than Brazil where widespread poverty will be there.
- Brazil is a country which is the perfect place for Olympics where people of various backgrounds and race can come together.
- Also we have seen the technology, beauty, party, arts, spectacle and architecture all showcased in Brazil Rio Opening ceremony and it certainly appreciable.
- Still I am watching the ceremony and more than 1 hour still left I will update more points if I find.
