Let me emphasize on the cores of the last messages.
I can see that Ninjaiboy22 study M.A. to learn patience and spirituality, and Tom Yum study M.A. to study “people” (above self-defence, exercise, and stress release).
What both of you have mentioned is really interesting. You have pointed out that by learning martial arts, people learn to have better or higher qualities and values. We ourselves are martial artists and we have definitely been bettering ourselves. Personally, I like you both for that particular reason. I like people who always try to improve themselves.
