Mastery of Life

"The tragedy of live...
is not that it ends so soon...
but that I wait so long to begin it..."

All the while, been wondering what does becoming a master mean...
but often forget the root of trees...
what a master, master...

In martial art, been I've wondering why my coaches, trainer, sifu, teacher...
are often known as a master to me...
then I begin to realize...
a master of the martial art known very well of the basic...
not only knowing it...
they are living it...
practicing it...
and sharing it...
again and again...
even when they have "master" it..
colour of the belt never seem to be the measurement...

a Teacher in school is the master of the subject he or she teach...
knowing well of the foundation...
being able to present and explain to the student...
practicing the knowledge again and again... drilling it...

same goes to other field...

but what about the Mastery of Life...
