Tae Kwon Do Black Belt Essay
(June 3, 2000)

Conclusion

There is nothing that I can say about Tae Kwon Do that hasn’t already been said in my essay. The final part in this stage of my life is to physically go through the test in the days to come, to succeed and to move on. Remembering that day will be easy, as it is going to be one of the most important days of my life.

Starting Tae Kwon Do three years ago, as a white belt, as being born into the world of sport. Now, entering the stage of becoming a black belt, the space that is to be explored beyond the sun and completion of this part of my training. Why I started, philosophy of Tae Kwon Do, the five tenants, practicing of Poomse’s and patterns, Do-Jang etiquette, how Tae Kwon Do has enhanced my life and goals for the future.

Soon it will be decided if I have what it takes to become a black belt. This essay has made me think about things that I have not thought about before, it has made m realize just how much I have changed and how I will likely continue to change as times change and I grow older. I believe the day I receive my black belt will come when I am ready, and that day will be soon. I can now only hope and pray my feelings are correct.
