		<title>Contact is not a verb</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My journey into the English language is limited. I&#8217;m not a grammarian. I do not actually care whether contact is a verb or not. But the use of the word &#8220;contact&#8221; has recently made me cringe. It is worst than &#8220;I&#8217;ll call you later&#8221;. With &#8220;I&#8217;ll call you later&#8221;, I know that the person may [...]

		<title>Finding the uncommon common point</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Push hands is a 2 person exercise. In its simplest, it starts off with 2 person standing facing each other, and each of their right hand touching at the wrist. From there, both move about in what seems like a dance between 2 people, to see who gets the upper hand.
I normally focus on the [...]

		<description><![CDATA[What you resist sticks to you.

I got this quote from a self-help book, and I thought it was talking about push hands! The book is by David Allen, from the Getting Things Done fame. His more recent book is Making it all work: winning at the game of work and the business of life.
When he [...]

Today, I learned to journey within other people through their Tai Chi form. The obvious example I can think of is the [...]

		<title>How did you do it?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At one of the push hands class, I was discussing with a fellow student how to counter another person&#8217;s &#8220;attack&#8221;. While we were experimenting with various kinds of counter attack, a very important point emerged. I forgot about me.
Everyone is unique. Everyone has his own way of doing Tai Chi. It follows from this logic [...]
