THE 3RD PLACE

We have a tendancy to break our lives down into 2 main areas work and home …Work can be exciting , stimulating,challenging, stressfull it can also be dull ,boring and unchallenging …Whatever the case may be it puts food on our tables and pays the bills …Home can be peaceful , nurturing ,relaxing , supportive but it can also be damn hard work …balancing healthy relationships,wrangling young ones and keeping the roof over our heads …Thats why you need a 3rd place somewhere you can go to work on yourself …To sweat, destress and unwind a place were your allowed to be just you .. to train hard with friends and have some laughs along the way ..Everyone needs that  3rd place for us its the mat ..That sacred place were we uphold the traditions of our forbearers…Were we practice courage daily and embrace the virtues of Family Honour Loyalty …Forging lasting friendships …Developing real world skills …And becoming the best version of ourselves…When i travel i miss our mat..It nurtures me …But the upside is i get to hang out on other mats that embrace our same philosophy…Truly lucky …See you at the 3rd place …Regards Sifu
