Welcome To My Ninja Blog
This is the start of my journey to become a ninja, or at least to grow as a human.
Am I really trying to become a ninja?
No. Well, yes. But not really. Kind of, I guess?
That’s probably not the ninja answer you were hoping for. I’m really using ninja as an archetype for a mysterious and dedicated person who obsessively works on bettering their own life. And, they look really cool doing it.
So, Is This About Fighting?
Nope. I’ll probably learn some fighting along the way, but that’s not the point. My archetypal ninja tries to avoid fighting at all cost. There are many different forms of fighting, and you’re never guaranteed to win. It’s less risky to not fight.
Am I Going To Run Across Rooftops In The Dark?
I guess I could, but I’m not really sure why. This is a personal project to do some fun stuff, so I’m open nighttime rooftop running, but I doubt it’ll accomplish a lot of my goals. I really want to try to push myself to be a better version of myself.
Wait, Aren’t Ninjas Assassins?
I’m far from an expert on feudal Japan, but I think they were. That being said, this isn’t feudal Japan, and I have no interest in assassination. I’m open to trying a lot of things, but that one’s a hard no.
Ok, What Will I Really Be Doing?
I’m not really sure yet. I guess my first task is to figure that out. I’m going to be setting goals and working on them. I’ll probably succeed sometimes, and I hope I’ll fail a lot. I expect to learn a lot more from failing, and that’s how I’ll grow.
Let’s just see how this goes.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to shop for ladders in case I have to climb a roof.
