As a follow on to the topic of falling down, here's a picture of holding up. It's an Aikido picture (for Aikido, think judo, with a touch of Zen thrown in). Over the years I have taken literally thousands of Aikido pictures, this is one of my favorites. The hands above are doing a technique called yonkyo on the hand below. Very painful if done properly, the connection is undeniable, a jolt to the spirit, a touch to the heart.
