it's a really cool community to be a part of and I'm really glad to be here, i appreciated all who contribute. so much to learn, be entertained by, and at times you have the opportunity to be humbled by the level of honesty and openness other members allow. this is a level of openness not found in daily life.
i look at the convo's i've had with jipped about how we're not the greatest fighters to ever have a love of combat sports but we do it anyway. the openness, lack of posturing, and lack of one upmanship is so refreshing. i was actually thinking about this the other day about how I'd freely admit here how i hate getting punched in the nose but lacing up gloves in practice at a new gym I'd never admit that kinda thing lol.
we don't have a face to face relationship with one another on fg, but we have a human connection, one free of stereotypes, preconceived notions, and awkward conversational obligations. we interact here freely, openly. our words are well thought out, proof read, and full of meaning. non verbal tone might get in the way sometimes but without a doubt everyone here posts with honesty, integrity, and good intentions.
what more could you ask for?

Eventually, if there isn't deep integrity and fundamental character strength, the challenges of life will cause true motives to surface and human relationship failure will replace short-term success.
There is an idea of who I am: some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me; only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel my flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.
