The Beauty of Martial Arts is that its various Philosophies don't just Help with Conflict/Dispute Resolution or just Defending/Protecting ourselves from Attacks in a Fight or War, In Fact The Teachings of our Enlightened Warriors/Masters, are an Ultimate Guide and Protector our Relationships with Others-> Family - [Parents, Siblings, Relatives, Spouse], Teachers, Friends, etc too...
Seeking 'PERFECTION OF CHARACTER' which is considered the Ultimate Goal of a real Martial Art (Eastern Philosophy) as taught to us by many including the founder of Shotokan Karate Do, Meijin Gichin Funakoshi helps protect our Relationships from being Murdered...
Because It is by the perfection of Character that one Will
# Be respectful to Others
# Be Faithful & Loyal with Others they are in a Relationship with
# Endeavor to Maintain the Health, Quality, Wellbeing and Life of the Relationship with Others
# Refrain from Violent Behaviour with Others
# Have no ATTITUDE, Bad BEHAVIOUR, EGO towards Others
# Always Listen to Others Be Attentive, Compassionate, Understanding, Empathizing, Constantly Learning about Life, etc. that will protect One from making countless mistakes out of IGNORANCE.
# Have Integrity, Will Be Honest, Selfless, Sacrificing, Forgiving, Never Hurt/Cheat Others and so will never have any hidden agendas to derive HIDDEN BENEFITS
# Above all, One is always ready to Identify and accept One's faults, Mistakes, Failures and be ready to face the consequences of one's actions.
Thus no matter how difficult it is, we have to Seek Perfection Of Character in order to be as supportive and constructive and protective to our Relationships with Everyone...
To conclude, I would like to say from my experience of life that, if I was trained in Perfection of Character much earlier in Life and not just punching and kicking, I might been a better and more sensible person and may never have messed up so many of my relationships with others!!!
