Recently, Guatemala has gained a lot of notoriety for the achievements attained at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Guatemalan athletes have defended their dreams of winning an Olympic medal. Although most Guatemalans are unaware of the years of preparation and constant struggle of each participant, we have been proud of the performance of each of them. Although we have not actively participated in their personal preparation to be able to participate in the Olympic Games, we have identified with them and embraced their sporting spirit to the point of sharing their dreams of winning an Olympic medal in the different sports in which they participate.
SHARED DREAM
The Doll’s eyes widened, fascinated by the interior of the house. The entire first level was a dance floor with a gray ceramic floor. The walls were painted lilac and covered with multiple brightly colored flowers. Plastic strips covered in green leaves entwined with colored lights hung from the ceiling. In the center of the track was a huge rotating ball covered with small gold-colored mirrors. To one side was a bar where alcoholic beverages were served. The far end was divided into a small stage and a small DJ rig with two huge speakers. The dance floor was also circled by several tables and chairs where people could eat.
Los ojos de la Muñeca se abrieron enormemente, fascinados con el interior de la casa. Todo el primer nivel era una pista de baile con piso de cerámica color gris. Las paredes estaban pintadas de color lila y cubiertas por múltiples flores de colores brillantes. Del techo colgaban tiras plastias cubiertas de hojas verdes entrelazadas con luces de colores. En el centro de la pista una enorme bola giratoria cubierta de lo que parecían ser pequeños espejos de color dorado. A un costado estaba una barra donde se servían las bebidas alcohólicas. El extremo opuesto estaba dividido en un pequeño escenario y una pequeña plataforma para DJ con dos enormes bocinas. La pista de baile también estaba circulada por varias mesas y sillas donde las personas podían comer.
After hearing what Lark said, Manuel stood up, grabbed his hat, and left the house. Hilda approached Lark and hugged her asking, “What does Saul say about your pregnancy?”
With a smile on her lips, Lark woke up. Having felt love for the first time, her chest burned with happiness. The night before she had been very emotional. Her voice captivating the Jutiapa audience who applauded each of her songs.
