It's June 2010 and the entire world's looking to South Africa and watches the 2010 Soccer World Cup. It's an event which is uniting the whole world for two months, which is a great feeling. Four years ago the Soccer World Cup has been in Germany. This event has united Germany to one country - not only on the map, also in every German's mind. We started to being proud of our country again. We used to hide our identity, because we were ashamed of what happened 65-70 years ago - were ashamed what our ancestors have done in an absolutely horrible way. There is no excuse for the holocaust! Now we try to look in the future instead of looking back in the past. To be able to wave the German flag at an big event like the Soccer World Cup. I'm glad I can say that I am so tolerant and open for new cultures, people and religions from all over the world. There is no reason for me anymore to be ashamed of where I am from. That feels good!
