The coming together of different countries is heartfelt...

in #life6 years ago (edited)

Very recently there was a terrible situation with 12 young soccer players and their coach caught underground in the Tham Luang cave system in Thailand's province called Chiang Rai. The team is called the Wild Boars and from I read it was a trip to celebrate the birthday of one of the players who was turning 17. This news story went viral while it was figured out how to get these guys out. The Thai authorities and Thai seals with other dive and cave experts from Australia, US, UK, Belgium, Scandinavia and other countries work together.

In Australia we only heard about it when the boys and their coach had been in the cave for 9 days or so before they were found and given food. The rainy weather was hampering the rescue of the boys and the coach who were deep underground.

This whole story is a good luck one filled with every kind of adventure, drama, bravery and clever strategy that anyone could wish for. Behind the scenes of the unfolding drama in Thailand, the rest of the world was watching, praying and cheering on the rescuers to get the boys and the coach out before the water level rose too high in the cave.

I found it most heartfelt and uplifting to see the world come together in such a compassionate way to save the boys and the coach. It is at times like this that I feel the love rise on Earth. It is such a magnificent acceptance of everyone regardless of race, culture and religious beliefs.

It is a good feel story that has a very happy ending except for the lost of one life - a Thai Seal. Our prayers and thanks go to this brave man.
