Brandons Third Nationals

To me, it's inspirational stories like this that really drives home the message about the true value of martial arts.

Story:
Four years after taking up karate, 12 year-old Brandon Earnshaw will compete in his third consecutive National Karate-Do Federation championship, according to timesfreepress.com.

Big deal, you say? Well, it is if you happen to be autistic like Brandon, and given the fact that when he took up the art four years ago, he couldn't stand on one foot without losing his balance and falling.
