So cool!

We were getting ready to leave Arizona in January this year, (we had just spent 10 days skydiving) when one of my friends said to me "I have the coolest friends! How cool are we? How many people do what we do for fun? We are so awesome!"

I remember smiling and thinking at first “wow, that’s not arrogant haha”, and then I thought “ya I guess she's right.” How many people accomplish the things we do?

Then I thought about Silent River, and everyone there. And I think "How cool are we! How many people accomplish what we do?" Then it hits me. Not cool, lucky. Here I have all these people who are inspired to learn, to grow, and to be better people, and I get to be a part of that. I get to learn, experience and accomplish along side over 300 people from beginners to Black Belts. And we all have something in common. We have each other, and Kung Fu.

Not everyone has this type of opportunity or community. Not everyone can say that they have the support and ability to do the things we do. We are very lucky.... and cool.
