I have journaled a lot. There are several journaled books, most have a good chunk of unwritten pages b/c I rarely fill a whole journal before starting a new one. In briefly reading thru some recently, it’s interesting the patterns that emerged. I have truly ‘been there done that’ often. Basically, so much experience, so many stories and reminisces, so many connections of history.
I'd like to start publishing my thoughts. I wanted to do this before but the blog is for Subtle Warrior. Tho the real reason I haven't published my thoughts is because I always chicken out. Yesterday, I changed the layout of the blog site. Incentive? Motivation?
I feel like I need to an intro to the new blog. Even tho its called Subtle Warrior, its is no longer about training and my journey in the martial arts and Self Defense, but rather it will now be about who I have become and how.
In a sense it is still about self defense because I am a subtle warrior. How I move through the day seems to always be mindful and perceptive, at least that's what I observe. Self-observation isn't always accurate.
I think I have reached an age that I don't t have to always keep my thoughts to myself. With that, this is my story: my rumination and my thought process.
Not put here for you to judge because if you know me you know I don't care.
It is very hard to not have 'you' in my head while I write. "How's the audience going to read this?"
I must keep this one thing in mind always: It's not about you.
