It was a night to remember at the Rio Olympic Rugby games when the first proposal took place after a match of Brazil vs. Japan. Brazil's rugby player Isadora Cerullo and now her fiancee Marjorie Enya shared a heartwarming moment after Brazil lost to Japan. Although Cerullo's team did not win that night, Cerullo sure did. "I want to show people that love wins," Enya said, proving that the Olympics is not only a place where you can express your emotions, dedication, hard work, sportsmanship, and teamwork freely, but also your love freely, regardless of gender and receive lots of support from those around.

My favorite moment in the Olympics had to be the iconic Usain Bolt and Andre De Grasse moment. Both contenders had an air of good sportsmanship and even a 'brotherly love' thing going on. They literally laughed their way to the finish line, with Bolt comically wagging his finger at De Grasse as if saying 'You almost got me'. I found their bright smiles and laughs very refreshing and a bit heartwarming. I love the fact that they were having so much fun and, at the end of the day, that's what the games are all about: everyone enjoying themselves.
