I would like to know. How did you feel about the art when you started? (Most deadly/complete art ever?, Great camaraderie?) and how do you feel about it now?
The same? If not, what has changed?
I don't want this to feel like a survey, I just really wonder about this. No one seems to vocalize it much. I know my opinions have changed drastically since I first started training, so much that I've nearly stopped training altogether. (I get in 3 or 4 sessions a year nowadays.)
So yeah, how did you feel, and where are you now. If rank seems relevant, go ahead and say it.
For example:
For me, being a fresh white belt...vs now being a 6 year 3-stripe blue with a degrading body..very different thoughts on the art and culture. But I don't want this to be about me, I'm more interested in yours.
