Written by There are a lot of things I am grateful for with this challenge and being involved with the dojo again. One of which is new friends I am making along the way. Specifically, Elan. When Elan and I first met, she was always very helpful. I was very self-conscious about my technique after being out of the dojo for so long. But Elan was always very approachable. She has been supportive and encouraging in my times of sickness and injury. We are on the same wavelength with things inside and outside of the dojo. She is an animal lover like myself. We even went to a Janet Jackson Concert together! We talk about once a week on the phone, depending on our schedules. When I get down on myself with where I am at on things, Elan is always there to pick me up. She has been my rock for this challenge, and she probably doesn’t even realize it. Because she is just being herself, a great friend. Here is to you Elan 🎉

Thanks for saying such heart warming things. I really enjoy our friendship. I am glad we can do activities inside the dojo as well as outside. Janet Jackson was so much fun with you and your sister. I look forward to many more adventures with you.
