To know...

So I was at work today thinking really hard and talking to someone about my beliefs and philosophy. I was talking about Buddhism and a simple quote came to me:

To Know Yourself is to Know the Universe.

I thought to myself, I couldn't be that original so.. I Googled it. Turns out someone already said it.. The originator of the martial art known as Aikido is believed to have said it first. I've always wanted to learn Aikido. It is a martial art that is used in defense only. There are no offensive moves. It is the art of using the opponent's force against them to defend yourself. The founder's philosophy is profound as is the martial art. The only bad thing about Aikido is..
