Nostalgia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nostalgia

Is it the pain of knowing that the fleeting moment is all we have,  yet we forget?

These ARE the good old days!

True Budo (martial way) is to accept the spirit of the universe, keep the peace of the world, correctly produce, protect and cultivate all beings in nature. 

Morihei Ueshiba, founder of Aikido

The Ancient Yew

Drives Strength

From Emptiness

BUSY old fool, unruly Sun,

        Why dost thou thus,

Through windows, and through curtains, call on us ?

Must to thy motions lovers' seasons run ?

        Saucy pedantic wretch, go chide

        Late school-boys and sour prentices,

    Go tell court-huntsmen that the king will ride,

    Call country ants to harvest offices ;

Love, all alike, no season knows nor clime,

Nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time
