Pain Pics

Pain is suppose to teach us something. Bruises, sprains, cuts and scrapes have been my most effective teachers in the martial arts. When I get a bruise that gives me an insight into life, I take a picture of it to remember and honor the lesson it has taught me. 

Here is a peek at some of the lessons that pain has taught me:

Always punch with the first two knuckles on your hand. In this pic, I was taking out some anger on  Bob and am lucky I didn't break anything in my hand.

Also, beating people (or just a Bob) with your bare hands is painful. Hands are delicate precision tools, not indestructible weapons. It hurts less to hit stuff with a stick.

Also, I am a slow learner.
