The Arrow Breaking ceremony before hand truly affected me the most. The tip of an arrow was placed on the soft spot of my throat, and as my companions shouted the object of my journey (clarity), I stepped forward with great power and snapped the obstructing arrow in half. We then moved onto the actual Fire Walk, where I realized that the clarity I so sought after was within my grasp. I thought there would be some trick to walking over live coals, but there's not; you just walk. In life, there's no secret to getting to where you want to be; you just have to go ahead. So, without further ado . . .
Fire Walk Haiku
Snap the old arrow;
learn the secrets of the coals.
It's never too late.
