This photo (collection of the author) shows Nagamine Takayoshi (長嶺 高兆, August 12, 1945 – April 25, 2012). I believe this photo captured the true young man Takayoshi, looking towards a bright future with confidence, knowing, with his head held high and a cultivated appearance. One should always remember that once our sensei were young man. Only in this way we may understand and appreciate them right.
