Greetings, those I cannot see and those who may not even be there. It is my hope someone will find this blog, and find it to be useful, helpful, or at least amusing...
Here is the beginning of something new. Hopefully something productive. Perhaps something that will cause debate.
Now you may be curious as to the purpose of this blog, despite the description off to the side. I wish to state my beliefs, findings and observations of the world, and perhaps ramble about nothings. We shall see.
I don’t believe in stereotyping. Many claim that ninja are bloodthirsty berserkers, bent on killing whatever they come across and getting all the profit they possibly can. Some were like that, yes. I will not deny the truth. The truth is a precious thing, which must be protected in this day and age...
But I’m getting off subject.
I’m determined to show that there can be ninja, or shinobi as I prefer to call them, here in the modern world. Shinobi who are determined to do good. Who *do* good. Who don’t care what the world thinks of them. Who do what is right no matter what others say. Who stand up for what they believe. Who are patient, kind, do not envy, do not boast of their own doings, are not wrongly proud, are not rude, self seeking, or easily angered. Who keep no record of wrong, who do not delight in evil, but rejoice in the truth. Who protect, hope, trust, and persevere.
Who are lovers, not fighters, but who will fight for what they love.
Who don’t call attention to what they do.
Because shinobi are all about secrecy, right?
Yes... That is what I wish to prove. Of course, there is only so much one can prove through a blog, it must be a lifestyle, but I wish to encourage others to make this commitment also.
I will be posting principles, goals, suggestions, etc here. And I challenge you to join in this. Become your city’s shinobi. Your workplace’s shinobi. Because every place needs a shinobi looking out for it.
Until next time.
