The substance of the previous expression of distress is why I like to write when things are tough. The philosophy and idealism of the warrior's way only has value if it is actualized in the full consistency of life. I'm a real guy with common challenges and pitfalls. I was taught that to keep a recognition of this is not exclusive of lofty determination. The disconcerting aspects, events, and moments of life are the premium opportunities to sharpen SELF-control and maintain deportment worthy of the warrior's way. It is a choice to make ones ideas cohesive and relevant, and it is in the worst of times when such choices count most.
This reminds me why it is so important to develop the habit of being consciously decisional; when a time comes that poise and well being are threatened by circumstance, it is habit that draws you to enough pause and presence to SEE your choice stands sacredly above the conditions of life.. that you then stand above fate. This is how a warrior addresses controlled folly.
