Being tough isn't about fighting. It is about being able to handle whatever life throws at you and keep on going.
While traditional MA could be used for self-defense, they definitely suck for fighting -- because they instill self-discipline! The very thing that will keep you out of a "fight." _________________ There's no place like 127.0.0.1 |
