My first weapon

With bloated stomach stuffed with extremely heavy meal and seductively sweet desert, I arrived home at the stroke of midnight. But my heart was contemplating the new items I recently bought. One was a door gym bar for performing chin ups or pull ups. Another one was a wooden sword imitating samurai sword. It was for neither destruction nor decoration. Rather, I wanted to learn martial arts, Kendo and Aikido as a serious desire for increased strength and fitness. Perhaps it was more than practising sword fighting like the samurai in the movies and video games. So I shall declare it as my first sword.

"Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword." (Matthew 10:34 NIV)
