Question Of The Week

A week ago yesterday,we were finishing up class, and I asked if anyone had a question. One young boy raised his hand and said," Master Cavins who's going to teach us when you die"? The looks on the adults faces was to die for. I turned this young man around, and told him to take a look at the senior Black Belts in the front row, all of them would take over for me. I  assured him he would not be left without a Taekwondo instructor. I  also pointed out a very promising red and blue belt, and said, follow these young men's excellent example, and you will be on the correct path. The young man was reassured and seemed to be comfortable with my answer, he then asked me to give him some TKD homework. Wow, I told him to go home and deep breath and
think about what he had learned in today's  class, he said do you mean meditate?, I said yes. Wow, again for nine years of age, an old soul I think.
I asked my Black Belts if I really looked that close to taking a dirt nap, they laughed , and said I was the picture of health, whew!, what a relief !, and I might add a perfect BB answer. At this Sat. Class one of the BBelts said , sir I see you made it one more week. I nodded , chuckled , and said it's good to be seen.
Life is growth. If we stop growing, technically and spiritually , we are as good as dead. The Art Of Peace is a celebration of the bonding of heaven, earth, and humankind. It is all that is true, good, and beautiful.  Morihei Ueshiba.

Train Hard, Train Often, Proper Balance Always
