What's it Worth to be the Best?



September 30, 2013
Got one last workout in at the gym before my injections. I headed up to my office/dojo and tied up loose ends throughout the day. One of our instructors came in and we had a really nice talk about our martial arts training (we both came from the same school) and my hesitation with going back.

I’m still frustrated. It bothers me that the person who threw me didn’t take precaution when he did it. Months prior, he swept Richard and hurt his leg also. Richard and the instructor I spoke to today both said that it’s not that these guys don’t know how to be safe; it’s that they just don’t care. Is that what I want to be affiliated with? What’s it really worth to be considered “the best” when the best don’t seem to care about others?

  1. The best in what way? I wouldn't want to play with people who acted like that, and who were so careless, or got off on breaking people. :(
