Kindness is the Ultimate Form of Self Defense!

As a member of the UBBT and the 100, one of the things our team coach, mentor and friend, Tom Callos, has taught us, is that the martial art's means more than just kicking and punching.

Okay, I know what you are thinking!

I practice karate and bujutsu with the intention of taking down my attacker in quick successive movements that will disable, possibly injure. However, the reality is, we train, so that we NEVER have to use our martial arts.

In this world where bullying has become common place, with young desparate children taking their lives out of fear and pain, I think the time is NOW to do something about it.

Think about it

If we treated each other with kindness and respect, there would be less conflict!

Yes?

Imagine, our politicians in Washington, treating each other with civility, respect and yes, even kindness, our country would probably be in a better place.

Yes?

What if we all agreed to perform 3 acts of kindness a day.....that would be a 1,000 acts of kindness for the year. Multiply that by your family, your work place, your neighborhood, your community, your town......

You get the picture!

The world would be in a different place.

Yes?

It all starts with YOU!

Start today!

Lead the way and watch the ripple effect when you do something kind for someone. Ask them to pay it forward!

How cool would that be?

One Day!

There is so much conflict in the world! From the Middle East to Afghanistan to Iraq. From the Arab Spring which has resulted in regime change and the loss of thousands of lives. From the economic crisis in America and Europe, with the near collapse of our banking system, that is slowly reaching into Asia. From the Tea Party rally's to the Wall Street demonstrations. From the high unemployment rate with millions without a job, to a growing homeless population. The left is attacking the right and vice-versa. Washington has mastered the art of the "blame game" with neither party accepting responsibility for what is going on. One Day! I am confident that one day, we will be part of a kinder, gentler world, because of the work we are doing! As school owners, we have audience to a large sphere of influence if we make the most of it. Our curriculum touches on all things human -- strong and vibrant as well as frail and compassionate. We have the power to CHA...
