Great achievement in martial arts and God bless you more for your generosity
yes well done sir! DA massive
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You have done it again in a way only you can. :-D.
You have always been, and continue to be a great inspiration to everyone. Continue on the upward path to perfection and inner peace.
I remember when you had seminars on the beauty of adapting and becoming yourself in any circumstance or location. THANKS FOR THESE GREAT TRAINING MOMENTS!! NOT just Martial Arts. it encompasses everything.
You live like Bruce Lee in a ROBIN RYU SYSTEM:
“Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.
Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.”
You Are living this Bruce Lee Quote. CONGRATS
