At the I Ho Chuan Meeting on Saturday Sifu Brinker called me on my unwillingness to share (blog) when I believe that I have nothing positive or enlightening to share. The past few months have been very challenging and it is the responsibilites in my personal life which has pushed out pretty much everything else. So my hubby, kung fu, dancing, my job, it all got pushed aside. It was very frustrating, blogs were roughed in but never posted because they were me venting rather than seeing anything positive in the experience. I am not like a lot of members on the I Ho Chuan team who really 'THINK' about whats going on in their lives and ponder the intricacies of the moment. I am more the head down, plow forward and get through it! It was a difficult experience, a task to be endured, resolved, and once completed, buried as quickly and efficiently as possible. So its over ... possibly I just need more time to appreciate the opportunity for learning.
On to more exciting things! I am really enjoying the I Ho Chuan this year ... especially the dragon dance team. I like the people on the team, I like the challenge of it! Its a performance that I can do and not freak out as I am not up there alone. Anyone who has the opportunity to be on the team and has not taken it ... well you are missing out big time. I was really hoping that we could do the double dragon at the chinese new year event it would be awesome.
