Purim is a holiday where everyone (but mostly kids) are putting costumes and pretending to be something else. Similar to Halloween but without the scary factor. Being at the first I Ho Chuan class I felt like everyone were dressed up as warriors, each one with his own weapon. That was pretty cool. All of us practicing our weapons and trying to make sure we are not getting hit or hitting someone else.
I think the moral of dressing up in Purim is that you are doing it because you don't want people to see who you really are. And then when the bad guys were gone you didn't need to hide it any more.
We are pretending to be warriors. I can already see that in few months we won't have to hide anymore and our costume will become who we are - Kung Fu fighters.
