"jon - maybe the poeple that keep using 'sifu' have watched too many kung fu movies Or maybe they genuinely respect him and that is their way of showing it."
* Nah there just all trying to annoy me i know it, its a big plan just to get to me They all plot and conspire!
Seriously though i respect him more than most there, im one of the few who darn well makes an effort to show up reguarly!
For all of there posturing and 'sifu' this 'sifu' that most of them train about once a month and then talk or sit down the whole time there 'apperently' training.
Im just having a vent dont mind me...
I have no problem with people being respectful towards there sifu but having a good instructor does not make you a good student and all the posturing in the world wont make him gain respect from your talent.
If i want to impress my sifu ill get good to a level where people know who i am and where my play comes from.
Calling him master every five seconds will not get that done any faster.
So yeah there is my big stink for the night, ive even managed to hide it within a perfectly innocent thread.
Up and down, forward and backward, left and right, its all the same. All of this is done with the mind, not externaly.
