Nothing can take those moments you had with him away from you. I'll pray for his soul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassan Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 [quote name='Nihil Obstat' post='1767424' date='Jan 31 2009, 02:46 AM']I love gojo ryu. Real karate takes dedication and patience. If he was a real karateka, like it definitely sounds like he was, then it's almost a given that he's lead a rewarding life. I shall pray that he's made his peace with God.[/quote] lol, like a couple of months after his major brain surgery he was back at the Dojo apparently. When I went during the summer he was in better shape than I was by far, which is why I was so shocked that he fell apart so quickly. yeah, he was a real karateka, 8th degree blackbelt and an expert surfer. Apparently towards the end he started teaching a lot of more exotic forms, like trying to pass on his knowledge to the next generation of Sensei's before the time came. So I guess he knew his time was short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it has made me more thoughtful about those things he taught me, so that's something to remember. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its your turn then to honor him by being the man he thought you could be, and teaching the next generation to be good men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
