Sure. We're not really talking about martial arts, though. We were talking about socialising. What point is there to that any more, then? Used to be for conversations. Used to be a basic part of respect that you listen to others. But now I'm to ignore most of what's said. Don't see why bother socialising, in that case.


Your life doesn't revolve around socialization.  Through Martial Arts...you will get to know yourself...and so others.  Martial Arts revolve around respect.  I have spent most of my life training in various Martial Arts halls.  I had started fairly early in life and it had steered me on to an inner journey...one that had kept me on a moral and correct life.  It is through that journey that I had learned so much about myself and so...others.  We are so similar (humans) in so many respects.  That is why the more you know about yourself...the more you know of others....the basic drives.  I had learned to love life through my training.  It was a VERY vigorous Dojo (training hall).  I left each training day...half dead from fatigue...but thoroughly cleansed...in mind and body.  You deal with extreme fatigue...fear...your own inner demons that scream out to quit or to just glide through life.  In persevering...you learn the most important lesson....to never quit.  Most people have a lower threshold of pain...fatigue...energy.  You learn to extend those to levels that most never achieve outside of higher levels of sports.  

You will...upon recovery...emerge not only stronger...but relaxed....many of your anxieties will go by the wayside....you will have gone through so much in your training as to give you a sense of awareness....and control.  I used to have many neurological problems in my youth...in one of my other threads...I go over them.  

I know you could gain such a sense of achievement...inner calm...focus...optimism (much of life won't be so difficult as your training...as you will have already conquered that in you training...life seems to be a breeze...and so enjoyable)...you will then be able to enjoy the true beauty all around you.  Although you don't talk much in training...you still feel a sense of camaraderie with the others there since you are partaking the same journey.  Through deadly serious training...you will meet some great people...through diligence, you will EARN their respect and your own self respect.   You will meet others who share a passion the same as yours...they can be the best friends you will ever have.  You will eventually get to the level of being able to guide others.  

You will learn self mastery.  Your goal is to be able to handle any situation in life that occurs with a calm heart and mind.  You will learn so much in life...through your training....you will look forward to everything in it.  You will simply learn to love life.

Simply go and do.  Never quit...you may progress slowly...you will feel...at times...extreme pain...fear...fatigue...and you will learn to welcome it...as that is what forces growth.  You will have the self knowledge that will make you feel a titan among mere mortals...because you will know that most in life never experience what you will have gone through.
