Last nights chinese new year was awesome!! Each one comes to mean more to me the closer I get to black belt--I actually know and have trained with the new sifus! Which makes it all the more sweet to see them succeed. I really am pumped also about the dragon/lion dance. When we were in the huddle, Master Brinker reminded us to slow down a sec, to take in everything around us, to be in the moment; it would never come again. All my nervousness went away, and the dance was such a joy. I can still feel the moment.
And for some odd reason, one of my requirements from last year has returned to me. I had set down to draw and frame a dragon picture. And I started to, hit a block and never returned to it. At the end of the evening, I was given a desire to draw again--a dragon, our dragon in a sense. So we shall see what becomes of it. Perhaps the eye dotting ceremony really did awaken our dragons spirit. And now he's nagging me.....
