I did Korean martial arts -- Taekwondo , since my kids were into it and it was offered by the community centre so it didn't cost me a broken arm and a broken leg to do it. I stopped when we moved, though we still practice at home sometimes. Funny thing is , to afford a decent house in greater Vancouver we had to move, and I wanted a home so we had a good place to practice it without disturbing the neighbours, but in moving we lacked nearby places to train and so we gave it up, mostly. We daughter would have been a black belt by now.
Just a fanboy passin' through.

very strong faith in God... but never was the praying type. Micky just cog in game of life. If God knows me.. it is only for my legendary cute ass and ability to rock a little black dress in 6 inch heels as no man can while downing a bottle of Jack Daniels and burning a Winston.

Meditation though...  every day and does the trick.

If prayer and meditation doesn't work for you then there's always sex and booze! Cool
Classical music isn't dead, it's more alive than it's ever been. It's just not on MTV.

LOL  I'm old and settled down now.. however I could trade sex and booze war stories with the best of anyone here in my youth. 

There was a certain god like feeling in chugging a bottle of vodka, dancing on a pool table to some Foghat song on the jukebox, spying a cute blond who is making eyes at you...throwing her date through the bar's front window to established your tough guy cread.... and then finally taking her home and showing HER a new religion.  That sh*t for the young though... today Meditation does the trick for me

Back for a moment to martial arts, I'm not big on form-based disciplines but some of these Wushu performances are terrific to watch, a great mix of the physical with the creative --

I try to clear my mind but I just end up thinking about not thinking while having a hypothetical conversation with someone about how I can't clear my mind while comparing the sound of different cars driving past and remembering the quietest times I've known and how quickly and often humorously they were interrupted.
