So, some pretty cool things happened this week! The classes that I help with were lots of fun, sweet moments were sweeter, hard workers worked harder, funny lines were funnier and the gratitude I feel for the opportunities that I have is greater.
I had an opportunity to partner with someone who I have not worked with in quite a while. It was like wearing a favorite shirt, it fit just right, we pushed and challenged, helped and encouraged, just like old times! I almost forgot how cool that can be.
I had an opportunity to spar with someone who I have not sparred with very much and it was awesome. After a few minutes of dancing about, we really had a good time together, both getting some good shots in, clashing a few times (sorry about the knee!) and creating an opportunity to try combinations and taking risks. It was an experience that I hope to repeat.
I had an opportunity to begin to learn the broad sword form. Thank you Sifu for your patients, I appreciate the time you are taking to help me. It feels very cool in my hand and I look forward to getting more comfortable with the movements.
I had an opportunity to refresh my memory on a hand form that I have been working on and it felt good to be moving forward with that again.
I have kept my word to myself each day this week and plan to continue to do this each and every day.

Sometimes keeping your word to yourself is the hardest thing. Lucky for you, you've surrounded yourself with encouraging people. Sounds like you're doing great, I miss you already.
It was fun! Have to do it again sometime.
