Hmm. I just woke up awakened.

Mucho hola and some other fancy foreign language.
Hi, itsa me, Josh.
Just thought I'd start somewhere for this blog. Right?

"When a man in the beginning of his life is ignorant of everything, he has no scruples, finds no obstacles, no inhibitions. But after a while he starts to learn, and becomes timid, cautious, and begins to feel something choking in his mind, which prevents him from going ahead as he used to before he had any learning. Learning is needed, but the point is not to become its slave. You must be its master, so that you can use it when you want it."
--Yagyu Munemori (1571-1646) (as interpreted by D. T. Suzuki)
