There was a moment of deep reflection when I felt my first wave of nausea and looked at the clock, to realize that only one hour and ten minutes had passed. But I have to say, even in the middle of the testing, I knew I was having fun. Lucky for me, I get to do the same kind of test over again in just about 4 weeks. #hoorah Kate MacKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15648082724834683853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5130538200510104909.post-23643386539077132432016-01-27T14:36:36.968-05:002016-01-27T14:36:36.968-05:00Thanks for your comment, Don!

I like the idea of being 'oriented from within' by something that had formerly been outside the self, as a goal or ambition. It's a compelling way to think about how we are constantly coming into being, creating ourselves. Becoming who we are, if you will. I've always been drawn to that idea, and I feel like your description above is a new way for me to understand it.

To me, you are describing the process of learning by committing to something uncertain, and then watching new certainties emerge through that very commitment. That, to me, is exactly like what it really means to get a "degree" in taekwondo or in academy-do, or to see that a relationship connects to something bigger than yourself or your partner: that you gradually work to transform a basic state of trying to orient yourself toward something, to now, suddenly being oriented from within by that very thing you sought. Whether you get an actual piece of paper for your wall or new belt for your do-buk, you are already seeing what is essence of the practice, the "tao/do" of the tae and kwon, the philia with the sophia, or a reminder of how someone can change your life. Very thought provoking post. I wonder how these different commitments, relationships, education, martial artistry, will now start to transform themselves into new and powerful expectations and projects!Donnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5130538200510104909.post-87170751977503777532015-12-17T22:43:31.705-05:002015-12-17T22:43:31.705-05:00I should also mention that I've started having...I should also mention that I've started having tae kwon do dreams.

I think we're all worthy of certain things, like having conditions present in our lives that let us realize our potential (ie. capability theory). There's definitely something crucial about a person deciding for themselves that they are going to put in the work to reach their goals, but it seems like a person may not even recognize that they have a decision to make unless they have a sense of their own worth as an agent in the first place.Kate MacKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15648082724834683853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5130538200510104909.post-29463705484142901612015-12-04T20:57:06.389-05:002015-12-04T20:57:06.389-05:00It strikes me though too that it is only your frie...It strikes me though too that it is only your friend deciding she will pursue and do the work to succeed that genuinely makes her worthy. She surely has had the potential for success for a long time since she is exhibiting it now, but at some point potential is merely that and whether we are going to be/come worthy or not stops being about whether we were encouraged or not and instead rests simply in our choices and our action. It's hard to get over those childhood influences but we can and we must choose how we want to live because we are the only ones who can.
