Zen Archer

The young monk was watching the elven woman practice with her bow. Her shots were perfect, and there was quiet in her stance. He was impressed by her shooting. Less by her accuracy and more by the fact that her shots were all made while she was upside-down balancing on a swinging rope. As she fired her last arrow, she let herself down and came to the young man with a smile on her face.

-Do you understand now? She asked with a crystalline voice.

-Hardly, the young man replied. It was great shooting for sure, but I don’t understand how this relates to my fists?

The elven woman shook her head slowly, then got on her knees and took the young monk’s hands, and looked at his bruised, barely healed fists, caressing the palms with care. With a sad, yet understanding voice she simply replied

-The lesson, young man, is that all fists aren’t made of flesh and bones.
