No, it is not the 5 animals of Kung Fu. The Famous 5 are five women who did not accept how women were treated in the past. If you have not heard of them, please read in this link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Famous_Five_(Canada)
Do I have the courage to stand up for what I believe in even if I have to stand against more powerful people? And this is for all levels of life. It can be at work, in school, in our community. Do I have what it takes to take a stand?

Making the kwoon part of who you are
You cannot get your black belt in private lessons. Just showing up to your class and nothing more. There is so much more for getting a black belt at SRKF. As a student (but especially if you are a black belt candidate) you need to be present in school event and even more so - lead these event. This is a great practice for life outside the kwoon. Taking initiatives and leading them is key for your success and the success of your organization.
There are many opportunities to be involved and lead the kwoon. One of them is the school maintenance. This one in particular is great because on top of being involved with the school and better yet leading the effort, you are also making a better connection to the kwoon. Making it part of you are.

Back to business
Love going on vacation but...
It always takes me of my routine.
It is so hard to get back to work.
I have so much catch up to do.
So, is it worth it?
For me it is a time of reset. Time to do some thinking.
...and tomorrow it is back to business.

Preference
As I write this blog, we are in Yellowstone. It is nice here but a bit overrated in my opinion.
The campground has many sites, they are close to each other and small. The roads are packed jam with cars. The parking lots are always full. The scenery is nice but I think the Canadian Rockies are much more magnificent. The geysers are unique, beautiful and worth the trip.
Before leaving, lots of people told me it is so beautiful there. I guess beauty is very subjective. We all have our preferences.
This is the same with martial arts. Each person may find one more beautiful than the other. One that works better for them. There is no right or wrong. Just preference.
