im pink therefore im spam!

i feel a bit weird lately writing this blog...in particular about what to share...
sometimes i feel like writing...did'nt do Parkour today...couldn't be bothered!!! (inspiring stuff !!!)
or
balanced on something...mmmmnnn it was nice...why? dont know!....but it was nice...!

i looked at the tally of hits etc and in one way its cool that it finally got beyond 5 from when my Mum read it ...and (then got past 10 from when Shi started reading it...haha lol thanx Shi..I owe you!). In another way though knowing that people are reading makes me more concious of wondering...why do we choose to find out about some people and not others?
and why do we choose to listen to or disregard what we discover from others?


Which brings me to something else....more and more I am noticing..(and this noticing is how part of how i rate 'improvement' in Parkour in terms of a growing awareness) when i am seeking information from inside and when from outside. Lately I have been searching for new sources of outside information from a wider net of physical activities and from a wider group of people. We will always go out from ourselves to a community and this is really great and i suppose also healthy and neccesary. Essentially though Parkour as a way of spending time develops awareness of the senses; touch, sound and visual. There will never be a lack of kineasethetic (spelt wrongly again im sure) information whilst you are living and breathing and so there is endless feedback to be had with yourself.

I have a chip on my shoulder about society in general in that i think its to 'virtual' and 'artificial' and not ' real' enough anymore in that we are protected by a nanny state and live outside our natural rhythmns and impulses. In relation to this problem Parkour becomes an activity where we can immerse ourselves in the viseral and corporeal, we are boss and call the shots, and no one can knows our way other than ourselves...
im listening to all those physical cues from inside as much as possible and maybe this way i will never be without a teacher.

Thanx to everyone who has posted messages to me or is following the blog....ill take a look at yours..
