Just thinking about one of the coolest things I saw last night. After teaching class, I was watching these two young girls sparring and just going at it kicking nonstop and blocking each other’s kicks. One of them started to feel the pain and fatigue on her arm with all that blocking and some tears started coming down her face. Then, the martial arts instructor asked her, Do you want to keep going? And she just nodded her head and said YES. For me, it was a pretty awesome thing to witness from a young girl and to let her know theres nothing wrong with crying...its important she kept going...to see that courage and perseverance from her while training. Just like life. There WILL be times when life just keeps kicking you over and over and times when you WILL cry, but when most people would stop and just lay there and keep getting kicked...as a part of martial arts, we learn to keep taking those hits, but WE STILL KEEP GOING and hit back, even if there are also tears running down our faces with whatever we encounter in life. #Perseverance #KeepGoing #Life
