Warriors of light are not perfect.Their beauty lies in accepting this fact and still desiring to grow and to learn.
Paulo CoelhoTragedy depends on the way you see it. If you chose to be a victim of the world, anything which happens to you will feed that dark side of your soul, where you consider yourself wronged, suffering, guilty and deserving punishment. If you choose to be an adventurer, the changes - even the inevitable losses, since everything in this world changes - can cause some pain, but will soon thrust you forward, forcing you to react.
Paulo CoelhoA responsible warrior is not someone who takes the weight of the world on his shoulders, but someone who has learned to deal with the challenges of the moment.
Paulo CoelhoDoes a leaf, when it falls from the tree in winter, feel defeated by the cold? The tree says to the leaf: "Thatโs the cycle of life. You may think youโre going to die, but you live on in me. Itโs thanks to you that Iโm alive, because I can breathe. Itโs also thanks to you that I have felt loved, because I was able to give shade to the weary traveller. Your sap is in my sap; we are one thing.
