"A chronological record of significant events (as affecting ... an institution), often including an explanation of their cause" (Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary <1989>). These events, causes, and the individuals involved become the second heavenly nature of the institution/organization/concept.

I know who I am by knowing my History (past). This will guide me to the future not only by having but by being aware of my foundation, which was built upon the History (past), and where I am now.

History (past) is the guiding source for the life of our future. We can create the future by honoring the History (past).

Elders, seniors, instructors, experiences are part of past. So we honor (respect) them because they are a guiding source to creating our future.

We listen, value, and respect the teaching and wisdom that came from their experiences. These are some of the visible behavioral measurements of history in action:

• Concede your seat to elders and provide help to carry heavy objects for them.
• Listen to and honor your parents and grandparents (elders).
• Listen to your teachers.
• Demonstrate good academic behavior.

History will strengthen the Respect. We will be better learners and students as a result.

"Loyalty" (Choong) is one of the most important words in the Moo Do world. We often see that loyalty is motivated by a desire for a position, power, or money. This type of loyalty will be betrayed when the position, power, and money situation changes. Individuals who have failed in their loyalty usually are hiding their past. If loyalty is established based on the History, the loyalty will never change because the History will never change. These are additional visible behavioral measurements of History in action.

Create a good example (human story) by upholding loyalty, as demonstrated through behavior even during difficult situations. People learn from and appreciate the example (story).

• Loyalty to a principle rather than by convenience.
• Honoring techniques that were built on a true historical background.
• History strengthens Tradition, Philosophy, Discipline/Respect, and Technique.

Do I have History in my behavior?
