Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle and $A_{1}, B_{1}, C_{1}$ be the touchpoints of the excircles with the segments $BC, CA, AB$ respectively. Let $O_{A}, O_{B}, O_{C}$ be the circumcenters of $\triangle AB_{1}C_{1}, \triangle BC_{1}A_{1}, \triangle CA_{1}B_{1}$ respectively. Prove that the lines through $O_{A}, O_{B}, O_{C}$ respectively parallel to the internal angle bisectors of $\angle A,\angle B, \angle C$ are concurrent.
