I talked to Kankurou last night. He told me about Temari, Gaara and himself... they're a lot stronger than I ever would have imagined...
Was I holding them back? A year ago, I would have never doubted myself as a sensei, or as a shinobi, but... Leaving, and coming back to find them so empowered. And what happened to me... was disgracing.
I will stay in this village for one more week. Then, I will go to Konohagakure on a personal mission. Kankurou has agreed to accompany me so that I can train him. as predicted, this test is coming up, and he needs all the training he can get.
My house... Any longer, and it might have been sold. I'm glad to be home. I've begin to doubt my abilities as a ninja, and as a Jounin... I am going to ask Yanagi if I may participate in the Jounin Exam, which is coming up rapidly... So that I can verify I still have what it takes.
Some may doubt my skill could deteriorate from highest Jounin in the village to chuunin's in just over a year, but my skills have been on the decline for a while.
