Swordsmanship's first achievement is the unity of man and sword. Once this unity is attained even a blade of grass can be a weapon.
The second achievement is when the sword exists in one's heart when absent from one's hand. One can strike an enemy at paces even with bare hands.
Swordsmanship's ultimate achievement is the absence of the sword in both hand and heart. The swordsman is at peace with the rest of the world. He vows not to kill and to bring peace to mankind.
This is my final entry for knucklecracker.blogspot.com.
I am about to begin a new chapter in my life, and it's only fitting to create a new online journal to document it. Right now I'm like a kid armed with fresh notebooks for the coming school year =)
February was a tough month for me, and I'm not sure that I handled it well. There were times when I felt so helpless and wished you were here to fight my battles for me.
Then I realized that that was never your style. You taught me to always give a good fight, secure in the knowledge that you'd be on my side no matter what the outcome.
