I try to be the leader of the team, since someone has to be and I'm the only one who seems to be interested in order. It's often frustrating to choreograph tactics only to see them disappear in an emotional outburst from one of my brothers.
I take Ninjitsu very seriously, as it should be. As it must be. Ninjitsu is not a game!
I train diligently and read up on strategy to better prepare my family for times of duress. I've been accused of being too stringent in my expectations, but I don't agree with that assessment. I'm not striving to be perfect, only perfectly proficient. Perhaps when we are out of imminent danger, I will relax, but a proper ninja is ALWAYS prepared, and always three steps ahead of any nemesis. That takes hard work and dedication.
I love my family more than life itself, so I feel responsible to ensure their protection. Master Splinter is very capable of taking care of himself, but my brothers worry me. I feel that I must be there to compensate for their lack of focus. I guess this may seem a little hard-nosed, but if you were in my shoes, I think you'd agree that someone has to play the "heavy."
With that aside, I do realize the need for fun and relaxation. While I often disagree with Raphael, he is my brother, and I enjoy the times that we spend goofing off. I just wish that he'd try to see things from some other perspective than his own (something he no doubt says about me as well!)
My favorite times are at dinner, when the five of us sit together and listen to Master Splinter tell stories and teach lessons.
---
We've certainly faced our share of challenges over the years, perhaps none as arduous to overcome as those we've created for ourselves. Much of that is behind us, my goal now is to keep the team organized and make this family whole again. No easy task in this often chaotic and totally unpredictable world! May you find peace and harmony, and may your circle stay unbroken.
Be well,
Leonardo
