One of the things that has been on the mind of late is the coming together of my various interests under one roof, namely here. I’ve been encouraging people to look up various other people I have trained under over the years and have also made it somewhat difficult for people to find me.
Lately, I’ve been writing a martial arts news letter for my fledgling JKD group, which more and more folks are actually reading. The problem with that is from my perspective, I on occasion tend to rub elbows with the Warriors for Christ crowd and given some of my other writing, it is easy to see from my end at least, how what I really think may not be all that welcome when rubbing elbows, so to speak.
I also noticed that writing on this site on a daily basis had a rather dramatic uptake in the people showing up, far more hits than humans known to me. This is basically a good thing given it is the intention of my writers intent to have folks read my words of wit and wisdom.
It is one of the things I do think about, quite a bit, probably too much to the point of inactivity. Generally, I’m finding myself becoming a bit too cautious and much to self-censuring, never a good thing.
I know I’m not the only one dealing with this, and I am suddenly reminded of the importance of being Ernest, where much of the plot surround a public and private face which do not always match up.
My dance teacher was curious about the sort of thing that I do and took a gentle run at me. “You’re dangerous,” she concluded.
I have a certain comfort level in environments where everyone has the known ability to kill everyone else in the room and I realize not everyone else has that experience or comfort level.
Anyway, I’ve been shoe shopping lately and I am discovering that finding a new martial arts/dance shoe is easier said than done.
I’ve also been busy editing a short movie, which radically cut back on my ability to do my own creative stuff. So it goes.
I have made the decision to move the site over to Dreamhost, since they have a better delivery system for video than this one.
Weirdly, it’s been two years since I started the Kitty video project, which is where the videos are going to end up. Not much work on that one lately, obviously.
