    *reads it just as 'aerosmith - i dont wanna miss a thing' starts to play* fitting song


    it just shows that when people say they cant do a task they actually can, if a disabled guy who can hardly walk get to a blackbelt in karate then everyone should be able to. just prooves that mind is stronger than body

    :), nice story. Sitting in a wheelchair it would only get worse, as you never train. Pretty logic, but nice story ;)

    some places do yeah, but if its gotten to the point where someone pulls a gun on you, and you dont have a gun of your own its a very fine line

    some places will teach it

    Re: the story about kevin

    whether or not someone pulls a gun out on you isn't the point of martial arts.

    True martial arts are wyas to make sure your opponent doesn't get up, to be ale to kill someone with your barehands and with the slightest effort. To master them is to know not only how to kill someone but also to know how not to kill.

    A master would be able to take you out without having to use fatal blows.

    Nice find Exy it cheered me right up ^_^

    Re: the story about kevin

    Wow that is indeed an amazing story. Kevin actually reminds me a lot of my friend Matt. He has cerebral palsy as well and he is truly an inspiration. I find it fascinating that Kevin and my friend both have such great outlooks on life, and they try their hardest when doing anything. We should take Kevin as an example and try our hardest, never give up, and always keep a outlook that's cheery and bright. Thanks Ex for this story.
