Do we live in a world where violence against is at an all time high ! Or is it just reported easily now through social media !
Growing up in the 60s & 70s there were always the unsavoury characters who imposed there position in the food chain (so to speak) Myself , working in the building / construction industry all my life I have witnessed far too many episodes of unprovoked aggression, be it physical or mental abuse towards a person who has done nothing wrong apart from being slightly different or have an opinion on life that may not match those around them .
This doesn’t only apply to the construction industry, this is wide spread.
This has always been the way , now , not saying around every corner is a person who’s integrity isn’t greater than ours and in my travels the vast majority of humans are good people who only want to live in peace and cause no harm to others .
Martial arts can offer a way of neutralising the small percentage that want to disrupt your life in one way or another!!
Martial arts begin and end with humility, courtesy and mental strength to walk away when needed, help those less fortunate and in general help to cultivate human spirit!
