What I hope to say

I've had a long going fascination with Martial Arts, ever since I was a child. It has always been my intention to more deeply immerse myself in it, though I haven't practiced since I was quite young. The spirit behind it has always motivated me, the driving idea that what you pursue - or what I would - is not the strength to harm, but the power to protect and the wisdom and confidence that carries with it. I'm hoping that over the course I will be able to come closer to this realization, and in that attempt I hope to bring the truth of it closer to you, as well.

    I've always been intrigued by this philosophy too so this should be an interesting journey.

    I too have always been more interested in the philosophy and spiritual side of Martial Arts. It is often very difficult to find an instructor who is capable of teaching this.

    I believe that the martial arts are one of the true paths to enlightenment. Your perception of Aikido reminds me of an important prayer; “grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.” –the serenity prayer

    I posted a comment but I probably did not fill out the captcha or something. Anyway, this is a great topic, I'm glad someone is going about sharing their knowledge of martial arts.
