Detail Your Own Philosophy of “Do” for Brown Belt Test

IMG_4134

To me, Do is a sort of morality, a way of living (after all, it is the “way of life”). Do is what keeps us from using our Tae Kwon Do skills selfishly and to cause harm to other unnecessarily.

It tells us to be honest, accept our faults, and always strive to better ourselves, but not to demean or cause harm to others.
