Tomorrow is the first big step towards my new career in the pre-hospital field. The course I am about to take is four weeks long and has an incredible amount of material to cover in that time. Because of this I am sorry to say I will not be able to participate in the majority of the children's classes during this time, the hours and location of my course do not allow me to do both. This is temporary, I will return to fully commit my time once again at the end of August.
However, I must continue attending my own classes when I am able. It would be detrimental for me to completely sacrifice one valuable aspect of my life to solely concentrate on another. To go from five days a week to zero or even one would be too much of a shock. In times of change, holding onto at least a portion of something familiar helps you keep your wits about you and embrace what is happening.
The structure and support of Silent River is what makes it so great. In fact, it is because of the support of my training partners that I am making this life change in the first place. Classes also provide a means of de-stressing. The focus of mastering an ancient art gives one a sense of purpose beyond anything else.
My training is still going strong. I shook off most of the rust that I developed during my motorbike trip and I am firing on all cylinders once again. The body is stiff, but the mindset is still there. I am excited for what is to come.
