Master Black Belt
Ok, well. I'm not quiting TKD. BUT I found an art for me.
I had this dream that I had about wearing a white belt again. It went like this. I had this dream that I tested for my high red (1st gup/kyu) and failed (which is true). But my instructor made me go all the way back to white belt (not true ... I just kept the same rank). Anyways, I hated every minute of it. I was beginning to think that was true (eventhough I have started over before twice and didn't have a problem with it). I wouldn't put no dang white belt back on. Guess what? I'm a white belt again.
A friend of mine who is a 4th dan in Jujitsu just gave me my first lesson on his front lawn. I was totally blown away.
I don't think he would make me wear a uniform at all, really. But if he told me that I had to, I would be in a white belt. He showed me that this is an amazing art, and he didn't have to say a word. He just used techniques that totally got me by suprise (and I have been training for 5 years!). I learned that I know nothing of this art (Jujitsu). But I do know that the little bit that I did learn is AWSOME!!
I thought I'd share my experience (my reason for putting this in General MA chat). I'm also rambling a bit. It's late, and I'm SIKED hehehehe
