Hi everyone! I am so pumped to be on the cycle again. The last time I tested for my black belt was in 2015. I have grown so much then (physicals, mentally, spiritually) and I am excited to challenge myself again.
I asked my dad a couple weeks ago if he thought I would make it this far in Tae Kwon Do. He told me no, not because I couldn't, but when I started TKD I was a kid who gave up or lost interesting in hobbies. Thankfully, my mom pushed me to keep going until I could do it for myself. If my mom didn't keep pushing me, I probably wouldn't have stayed in TKD, and that something I would have regretted.
I am so thankful for my mother who pushed to me to be better at times I didn't want to. Because now, I learned to push myself.
