Saweet! A kick-a$$ Karate Kid website. I ran into this site while looking for the other kickin’ 80s movie called Breakin. Anyhow, back to the Karate Kid, which rocks and I must stop and watch it everytime I see it on TV! My girlfriend is pretty quick to change the channel if she glimpses a shot of it hoping that I didn’t see it but I’m much too quick for that! heheYou karate do “yes,” or karate do “no.” You karate do “guess so,” said Mr. Miyagi. I really like this sort of philosophy as it reminds me of the Yoda Quote that I had written about. What I really like about the movie is that it’s not all about fighting and karate like most Van Damne movies but it’s more about.. well, here’s a better quote:

It’s not a martial arts fighting film, but rather it’s a film about
Daniel’s own personal and spiritual development with Karate as a backdrop. [source]

which couldn’t be more true. I’ve always been a huge fan of martial arts and I’ve always been involved in martial arts in some aspect of martial arts at any given point in my life. Martial arts is not about fighting, rather it’s a philosophy and a way of life. If we can learn to incorporate martial arts principles into our everyday actions, then we truly become a martial artist.
