Struck Down Again

I got a cold this week. The second time I've gotten sick since I've been home. I decided this is not a good sign and I'm taking measures to fix the problem. Perchance my immune system is down from travelling or training so I'm taking some herbs to help bring it back to normal. In the meantime I accomplished very little this week. Did the bare minimum I had to in order to not fall behind but I certainly didn't make much progress. Except on one thing. The form I'm creating for our tournament in May is coming along very well. Added a couple of wicked new moves this week and polished what was there. It's really starting to feel good. I was a bit worried that it would end up looking the same as the sword form I learned in Wudang just with the moves rearranged BUT that is not the case. I don't even know where the inspiration for some of this stuff is coming from! The collective unconscious perhaps. Who knows. At any rate it's very exciting. I've never created my own form before and I didn't realize how much fun it is.

So I'm happy with my the new developments and I'm no longer sick. Life is good.
