Thank God for the martial arts. It is the one thing that brings some kind of serenity to my otherwise turbulent life.
I have come to the conclusion that there are just three things that a man should revil in:
Number One is winning a fight. It doesn't particularly matter what type of fight it is, as long as it's a physical one, and not the guys who think that getting a promotion over someone else makes them a warrior. I mean a fistfight, a boxing match, a wrestling tournament, a bullfight, whatever. "Mundis Ex Igne Factus Est"- the world is made of fire. When you're exhausted and your muscles hurt and your inhaling gasoline and blowing out fire, but you push ahead and win anyway, nothing makes you feel more absolutely alive.
Number two is loving a woman passionately and purely. Not just for the sex (which kicks ass, of course), but also just for her, for her mind and soul. These don't come around too often, and there may be but a couple in all the years of living. But when they are around, they are worth holding onto, worth fighting for.
Number three is pissing in the leaves when you're drunk. There's something wonderfully primal about it, especially if it's in your own yard.

I whole heartedly agree with the first 2, but as far as the third, I don't think you need to be drunk to piss in the leaves. Standing outside with your tallywacker hanging out and pissing with no hands. Just doesn't get any better than that.
