in Introduce Yourself
I am a Star Wars enthusiast who likes to dress up as a Jedi (figured I might as well get that out there). I am looking to find friends to help me resist the dark side (so to speak) and help keep me focused. A Jedi should show balance in his training. Healthy eating, studying, playing, exercise, yoga, and meditation. These are all things that I feel will benefit me becoming a Jedi. As Luke Skywalker once said (in the books): "A Jedi trusts the Force and at first seeks other ways to resolve problems: patience, logic, tolerance, attentive listening, negotiation, persuasion, calming techniques. But there are times when a Jedi must fight."

I seek those friends that will utilize this lesson...if anything, I think it would be cool to have some friends to BS about Star Wars with.

Cheers,
Jedi Master (hopefull) Martin

    Start this way: whatever you're eating now....................take your saber and cut it in half and give the other half to Chewbacca, Han, Leia, or whomever else you want. Well except an ewok. It may end up making them taller.

    Just don't use the nickname "ani". Every time I heard that in episode II, I kept thinking of him singing "the sun will come out, tomorrow".

    I love Dual of the Fates. This song gets me Pumped, I find if this song starts up in the middle of my work out I tend to push myself harder and run just a little bit faster.

    Try as I might, I fail to understand the connection as it relates to Star Wars. I am not familiar with Brodin. Google suggest this to be a mythical guardian of sorts, Reddit even goes so far as to suggest that it is he/she that watches over those who work out.

    Aikido is quite Jedi-like when you get good.

    No connection, sorry haha. Feel free to add though! I enjoy friends that can have fun with their fitness goals , regardless of their quest!

    Indeed, Brodin lifts up all who lift with him. His followers venture on a journey to Swolehalla, through many trials of plates.

    And let's face it - the Jedi had some serious issues. And that whole not-allowed-to-love thing? Yeah, no. I'll be a gray Jedi, if anything.
