Have been doin karate since I was 6. Lifestyle that I can't give up. My sensei once told me not to get involved in a fight again at school when I was 14. He told me that our hands are like weapons and we train because karate is art of being weapon to protect our beloved ones and not to destroy someone's face for simple reasons. Since that, have been avoiding fights for a long time. Sometimes soft guys think they can beat me up, and I apologize and leave them believe in what they think. Thanks for making our willpower so strong and teaching us to control our anger, Sensei! Ous!

Meh why bother wasting all those years of training if not to use it I say use it at least once and people wont mess with u ever again and save the soft people from getting killed when you avoided fighting them u risked their lives of making them think they are invincible and in worst case scenario they ran into someone who will Kill them not just knock them out so next time use it to humble bullies and save them from running into someone who will Kill

He was the last of the pre-World War karate masters, also called the "Last Warrior of Shuri"[2] He was the first to establish a Japanese ryu name for an Okinawan karate style, calling Itosu's karate "Shorin-Ryu" (小林流 or "the small forest style") in 1928.[3]
