I believe that once a warrior can FINALLY stop his internal dialogue at will and, through the process, gets his personal folly under control he finds himself in a world of people with uncontrolled folly. Most of those people refuse to take responsibility for their lives and are absolutely certain their personal miseries are someone else's fault. Stalking is the ability to act as though your personal folly is uncontrolled, just like theirs, so that you don't appear strange and weird. Obviously, to have one's folly under control is...not normal. "Normal" is the overall standard of the people you are surrounded with and "normal" can vary from country to country. What is "normal" in a Buddhist monastery is NOT "normal" in a giant Catholic church. It is "normal" for a person born in an area surrounded by poverty conscious people to grow up to be poor just like them. Just as it is "normal" for a person born among the rich to eventually become rich just like the people surrounding him.
I've found 'stalking' is best accomplished by 'seeing' the funny edge of life and capitalizing upon that funny edge. When you can consistently make people laugh whenever you may need to you are on the road to being a master stalker. Let's face it, people are most wonderful when they are laughing and happy and they are most miserable when the laughter stops. So being serious about life is a surefire way to be miserable whether you can 'see' or not.
I deliberately work on my original humor, as you can most probably tell by my writings. If you work on something with the Intent to improve chances are good you will improve. If you are determined to make the people you associate with laugh chances are that is exactly what will happen. Of course, if you don't assertively work at it chances are it's not going to happen.
Warrior or not, life is most fun when laughing and enjoying oneself. No matter what you may choose do to in life being too serious can kill all the fun. There is no indication, I have found, that life is meant to be taken seriously; unless you are determined to 'see' things that way.
Laugh or cry and be angry all the time. It's YOUR choice and on one else's fault. If you are living in a place where you are not hungry all the time and you have health you should be grateful and celebrate life while you reach for the manifestation of better and more wonderful things. I've learned the Spirit tends to respond most favorably to the grateful who demonstrate their gratitude through joyful appreciation.
