Good point , Speculator. My opinion on the Warrior is spread all over this forum. This time , it occurred to me that recognition of the Law of Attraction is
part of it . And , a good sense of humor , to laugh at one's own foolishness.
My journey to this place may not interest others. Yet , I am amazed at how Power broke through my FI's. How I recapitulated them. I liked that thing
about the 'knock of the spirit ' , where an apprentice is chosen. Seems The spirit was knocking on me all my life, but I couldn't take it
seriously. Better late than never. The warrior may never reach the goal, just like that journey to Ixtlan. Whether in actual violent battle,
like the Indians of old , or the battle of being in the world of people , the principles are the same. The more self importance and thereby self pity are
overcome , the stronger the warrior becomes. Changing one's idea of the world , and acting differently to that world are a help as well. Talk to plants
, trees . That'll do it, and convince everyone you're crazy, too! So what? Creativity is not an easy path , up against the boring sameness and
conformity. In fact , maybe it makes no difference. Some of us are outcasts no matter what we do , so run with it!
The greatest wisdom is meaningless to one who doesn't have the power to accept it-don Juan
