Why am I here now?

This is from an exercise we did in the morning class few months ago. I've just found it in my KF bag. We were asked to write down the reasons "why we joined Kung-Fu?" and then write down the reasons "why am I here now?".

Reasons why I joined Kung Fu
When my son joined the Lil-Leopards at the age of 3, he was so shy that I decided to join Kung Fu in order to motivate him and to be able to help him in his training.

Reasons why I'm still in Kung Fu

  1. I'm still in it to be able to help my kids. My son is a brown belt (I'm so proud) and the girls are taking their first steps and going to catch up fast.
  2. I realized Kung Fu is a great tool to increase my fitness level.
  3. Kung Fu helps me to stay healthy (physically and mentally).
  4. This is a great family activity. Now when the whole family is engaged, we can spend time together and train at the same time. I'm so happy my wife is engaged in it too.
  5. I realized that I enjoy teaching. It is not easy as I'm nervous standing in front of crowds (especially kids) but I was able to learn how to overcome this fear.
  6. Kung Fu is helping me to set goals and to work on being successful. Trying my best.
  7. The kwoon is a great place to find friends.
...there might be more, but these are the reasons I wrote down when we did the exercise.

  1. Yeah, I concur. And I am glad you forced (and force) me to do it.
