The Warriors Way
by Java Bomani

The warrior’s way, isn’t the only way.

He chooses the path of least resistance,

though some Martial Artists
choose to break the stone,
instead of taking the smooth way round.

The method represents the way,
the stone, the obstacle,
the target, rests behind it.

If the warrior scares his hands breaking the obstacle,
what will he have left for the target?

The warrior knows he can break the stone,
But he’d rather re-direct its power with suppleness,
then detonate on the mark
like nitro left in a baking sun.

He doesn’t question his power to destruct hardened substances,
if ever it becomes the target he’ll prove it.

Genting

Spent the majority of last week in Genting...Monday to Wednesday attended the MTA National Technical Poomsae Seminar with wilson and 3 others from my academy, Master Michael Liew, Shyu Pyeng and Zaidi... we had 5 koreans come down to conduct the seminar... Master John Deuk Moo Hur ( malaysian envoy to kukkiwon & WTF), Master Seong Ran Seol (Kukkiwon Instructor), Ms. Kim (daughter of Master Seong and 2004 world poomsae gold medalist, 17 years old, quite cute also ..haha), a Kumdo Instructor (korean swordsmanship) and one more 18 year old girl who is a 2 times world taekwondo championship gold medalist, sparring event.... All the koreans were really friendly but only master john could speak english well ..... anyway the course was a real eye-opener.... lots of changes to the junior and senior poomsaes as well as a lot of discussions about the political issues plaguing MTA..... on the last day the national team and the elite team dropped by... took a pic with elaine teoh... RTM did some filming on the last day as well ... will be aired on fokus sukan this coming thursday at midnight (sucky channel, and sucky time slot) but must watch maybe can see my face .. hahaha...

the seminar ended around 12.30 had lunch then checked out ... zaidi was kind enough to drop wilson and myself at the skyway... went to meet up with yappi, dharshan, pey chyi, yao xian, teck keng and hen hen...unfortunately when we reached the top we got lost trying to find the main entrance to the team park...walked for around 20 mins all the while lugging our heavy bags along....Stayed at Ria Apartment... the rest of the day was spent at the theme park .... then at night when to first world for dinner...after that went clubbing ... nice club ..freaking expensive but their song selection was excellent.... Hen insisted that she didnt want to sleep that night (something bout ghost) so me, yap, hen and pey chyi sat chit chatting and listening to radio but we were mostly doozing off most of the time .... i woke up at 3am ... yap and pey chyi had gone into the room to sleep...didnt wake me up also ... hen also KO on the chair already ....finally went into the room at 3am... dang dharshan woke me up at 8am ... played cards.... checked out at 12... oh and poor wilson lost his wallet in the bus on the way back... when for lunch at desa setapak... finally all bersurai at bout 3.30 i think ... all in all a very tiring and fun week.
