Any fool can kill. I think it is more about the commitment to the art, to becoming so engaged in it that, almost unthinkingly, you are always acting with 100% of yourself in the act.<br /><br />I am not sure.

I know that historically that is the case - I forget what the statistics were for when wars started in terms of the percentage of US Servicemen that would actually shoot at the enemy,but I recall it being rather low - but I suspect my Sensei is trying to get at a deeper level with me - not just the ability to strike but the intent, the commitment, behind the strike.Toirdhealbheach Beucailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872794169534403463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14404262.post-40879968145669943082016-05-06T18:25:38.224-07:002016-05-06T18:25:38.224-07:00You are right, Reverend Paul.
