A day at "sea"
2005.10.08. 00:05
Whoohoo! What a great day! Actually I most like autumn of the seasons,- I love the colors, the soft sunshine,- not so hot like in summer, not too cold, the smells of threes shells. Some kind of melancholic mood in the ear, lol. It´s the time passing by, nature´s getting ready for great winter-sleep.. I went out to a special place near the city (ca.15 km away) to take some exercises. To check up my hanmi. I took my bokken with, it´s amazing on that place to practise. I made some shots to check up the stance- "footwork" would they call it lol. It´s cool to see yourself practicing, some mistakes can be correct, you can see some movement- habits that you would not detect without mirror, camera or a good partner. Well, I have a good partner, but not now.. Sometimes we go together out,- Moyo and me and practice together. But she´s under the week in Munich. Maybe on weekend. On the right side,- bad. Donald Duck arse.. Elbow and hands too far reached..bad better, but arms too racked dame, dame...too bad Swords top too high good kamae, good hanmi wow-wow-wow! what the heck´s that?! not centered. bad for "yokomen" in movement OK. left elbow too far reached. ..hmm..have lotta´ learn.. about the nature of things.. ..about other worlds.. ..secret beauties.. ..ways...and paths.. ..about being one with the nature,.."..be like water, my friend..be like water.." Sometimes have to walk through the forest to go home.. ..through light and shadows but some flowers bloom in autumn well.. I remembered a Haiku on the way home... " Among flowers, the cherry blossom; Among men, the Samurai " Today was a good day.
