I figure what's more appropriate on the Fridays that I am bedecked in wolf garb than to talk about warrior things. So in that spirit I have a couple of... well they aren't quotes... more like statements? Well you'll see.
This is an affirmation that I like to recite some mornings, I found it in one of my old samurai books, I am currently looking for the source information and will edit with where this is from as soon as I can locate the book:
The Boundless Heart Of A Warrior:
In this I seek each Day
To defend that which others deem impossible
To conquer what others cannot.
A warrior does not fight for vengeance or glory or fame.
He fights because he has a boundless heart
So that others never know of pain.
And this is something that I wrote while musing about the spirit of combat and how some are able to best others of great skill with ease. What sets them apart? Spirit:
What wins battles are the ghosts of those who came before
Ancestor spirits, guiding our hands and beating courage through our hearts.
Well that's warrior spirit Friday kids!
