Hello Everyone,
Here I am sitting in my hotel room in Calgary at 12:45 am and I am reflecting on how I have lost my way in Kung Fu. I have not been able to attend many classes lately as I have been called away on business for most of August. This has been an important time for me in my work life but my personal life and my kung fu life has suffered. There is an empty spot in my life right now and it is a result of my not being able to attend my classes. Kung Fu has become a really big parft of my life and it is hard to explain to anyone that is not involved in martial arts........ I really don't know how to expalin it other that it gives me balance in a very hectic world. I am very busy trying to balance my work life with my personal life and my kung fu life and it is not easy at all. For the past three months I have fully dedicated myself to kung fu and managed to balance my life. Recently my work has taken over my life and everything is out of balance.
I need to get it back into balance and Sifu Brinker and all the other Sifu's have helped keep the balance in the past. Sifu Brinker has said balance is sooooo important in life but it is so hard to achieve and I am really struggling to keep it all in check.......
I am spending the next three days in Calgary but I hope to get back to classes this week and get thinks back into balance and get my training started again......

Adaptability is one of the keys to balance. Nothing ever stays the same for too long.I'm not sure how it works but once in a while Sifu Brinker sets up a computer link with a class that is in progress. Maybe this would be an option for you when you are away. Just a thought. Great to see you back in class, I thought maybe I had lost you
