Masih banyak yang mencampuradukkan pengertian antara Paralimpiade dan Olimpiade Khusus. Padahal ada perbedaan mendasar antara keduanya.Paralimpiade adalah peristiwa yang sangat kompetitif. Atlet cacat bermain untuk menang dalam Game ini dan prestasi yang diraih akan dicatat. Pertandingan seperti inilah yang berlangsung dalam Paragames 2011 di Solo.

Sedangkan Olimpiade Khusus diperuntukkan bagi penderita tuna grahita (cacat intelektual) dengan penekanan pada kegiatan olahraga yang menyenangkan, bukan tingkat persaingan antar pesertanya.

v Olimpiade Khusus pertama digelar pada 1968 oleh Eunice Kennedy Shriver, adik presiden John F. Kennedy. Sumber inspirasinya adalah Rose adik mereka yang lain terlahir cacat mental dan sejak itu keluarga Kennedy yang sangat didedikasikan untuk membantu cacat mental. Eunice Kennedy Shriver telah membuka sebuah kamp bagi orang-orang dengan keterbelakangan mental di awal 1960-an.

v Pada Olimpiade Khusus pertama pada 1968 diikutu oleh seribu orang atlet penderita keterbelakangan mental dari 26 negara.

v Para Special Olympics World dan Winter Games Musim Panas Dunia Olimpiade berlangsung setiap empat tahun di kota-kota berbeda di seluruh dunia. Waktunya tidak bertepatan dengan waktu atau lokasi Olimpiade dan Paralimpiade. Sebagai contoh, Olimpiade Musim Dingin Dunia terjadi pada tahun 1993, 1997 dan 2001 dan Permainan Dunia musim panas berlangsung pada tahun 1995, 1999 dan 2003.

v Istilah Olimpiade Khusus juga mengacu pada program pelatihan umum bagi anak-anak dan orang dewasa keterbelakangan mental.

here i try to translate, and help by google translate. ^^;

There are still many who confuse the understanding between the Paralympics and Special Olympics. Though there are fundamental differences between both. Paralimpiade is a highly competitive event. Disabled athletes play to win in this game and the achievements will be recorded. Matches like this that took place in 2011 in Solo Paragames.

Meanwhile, the Special Olympics are for persons with hearing and mentally retarded (intellectually disabled) with an emphasis on sporting activities are fun, not the level of competition between participants.

v The first Special Olympics was held in 1968 by Eunice Kennedy Shriver, the brother of president John F. Kennedy. Sources of inspiration are their other sister Rose was born mentally handicapped and has since the Kennedy family is very dedicated to helping mentally disabled. Eunice Kennedy Shriver has opened a camp for people with mental retardation in the early 1960s.

v At the first Special Olympics in 1968 followed by a thousand people with mental retardation athletes from 26 countries.

v The Special Olympics World Winter Games and the World Summer Games take place every four years in different cities around the world. The timing does not coincide with the time or location of the Olympic and Paralympic Games. For example, the World Winter Games took place in 1993, 1997 and 2001 and last summer's World Games in 1995, 1999 and 2003.

v The term also refers to the Special Olympics training programs common to children and adult mental retardation.

Trying Minimalist Life

This is not the first time actually. I watched some decluttering and minimalism videos on youtube. I am doing decluttering for a couple years. Still doing it. Reduce all the stuffs I have. I even threw away a lot of momentos. Took photo of them before throw away of course. But still, I did it. Not a easy peasy task. They told me. Tons of articles and blogs mention how to be minimalist. More videos and tips. I am trying myself. Well, I sell some of my books. I will send some to my friends. I gave piles of clothes to my family. Maybe I will make neat post about my journey of minimalist. Well, my kind of minimalist. Because its hard for me. As I have tendency to be a hoarder. Digital stuffs? Ah, don't ask me yet. My phones and laptop still hold giga bites data of stuff I even don't remember. Just already delete a bit of it.
