Smile Re: Very Disturbing news about Clint George

Onegaishimasu. "Aikido is communication" is a common theme of Mary Heiny Sensei's teaching. The internet, being still new, pushes emotional buttons that many of us didn't know we had. My father taught me a basic 24 hour rule: "write your reply using all the emotion you have; but don't send it for 24 hours." That rule has stood me in good stead through many emotional twists and turns.

In gassho,
