Blogging

So tonight in the beginner class I spoke about the importance of blogging. I told what a great opportunity it is to be able to record your Kung-Fu journey and how we all have the power to change and influence the world through our blogs.

To be completely honest, I have not been living up to this. It's difficult sometimes (ok most of the time) to think of something profound to say that I think the world will benefit from. Often times I don't think I put the right effort into writing a great blog entry. This is reflected in the quick, this-was-my-day entries.

Sometimes though I think I do end up with something meaningful to say. Sometimes I feel different when I've completed an entry. Sometimes writing certain entries changes my perspective and this changes who I am. I find if I take the time to sit down and put my thoughts to words, I figure things out a little better. I grow as a person.

I don't think my blog will necessarily solve the middle-east crises, but I do think that it shows a person struggling to be better. And I think, if nothing else, blogging has been good for me.
