People keep asking me "Will you continue martial arts after your project is done?"
So far my answer is "YESSSS"
I love it so far it gives me a source of workout and I feel comfortable there. I see how martial arts is a lot more than just fighting. When I go I get into this mental mindset where I began to argue and fight with myself. It's something going on in my head. It feels like I'm looking for myself and as I do so I push every button to see how I will react to the pressure that's applied.
I want to learn as much as I can about myself during my life, I feel like a year wouldn't be enough time for that. Plus I would love to keep going higher in the ladder of prestige. It'd be wonderful to be a black belt one day. Maybe years from now but I want to get there. Martial arts is seen as a stress reliever for me. I definitely felt less stress after last week practices. Kinda week but mostly stress-free. I would love to continue this throughout college as I struggle with the tough classes that are thrown at me. When I can't think of an answer I'll punch the bag and fight with myself until I come to a conclusion. A relaxing way that will do no harm to others.
When I look at Harry I see his mental strength from life experiences but also I see how he holds himself while teaching this unique art to us. It gives me a huge role model to look up to. As you look at him you will feel that he is very powerful in many ways. It's almost scary how his presences take your respect because you feel him kindly asking for it.
I don't want to be a scary person but in martial arts I want to become as strong as Harry or stronger.
That will take a lot of mental strength.
OK I'm glad that I finally am able to read your blog! I feel like I missed out on a lot of what was going on with you! I think it is wonderful that this project is already having such a profound affect on you!
