Missed last week, sorry!
So this will be the first year since about 2002 that I'm missing out on the annual kwoon maintenance. I'm disappointed for two reasons. Firstly, this year involves smashing things. I enjoy that.
Secondly is the sense of ownership I get out of helping out. When I'm actually shaping the place I train in it's a nice reminder of the work I've put into it that doesn't show. I've long since realized, especially after moving away, that a school adds a tremendous amount to my training, and silent river especially gives kung fu a home. So I'll miss that reminder this year, but I'll be thinking about what else I'm missing too.
That being said, I hate painting.

The smashing was great!!!! I was thinking of you and the nice chats that we had while crawling along on the floor. You are part of what makes Silent River a great place to be, even when you are not there.
