Change is upon the world, and uless we are willing to accept change, we are destined to fail. Failure is not simply an option when it comes to the rough way the world has on treating people who perform less than stellar. Perhaps we all need to take a time to relax, simply because mistakes are more abundant when we are stressed.

As I was told by a friend of mine named Jason - "...Another is with everything you can learn and hold dear within the art you cannot learn everything about it ...Therefore to become a master, you must have learned it all (accepting mastery as it is handed to you)..
But that which cannot be taught will not be learned."
This was said to me at the start of one of our topics where we talked about Swordsmanship. He had said that his uncle had practiced it for 50 years and has yet to master it. This worried me, but then I realized that Miyamoto Musashi was a master at his age because of how Samurai's lived in those days. Basically, every encounter was life-or-death. After I pointed that out, he said the above quote.
