To withstand the forces of change with a measure of grace may be challenging at times. Just as one learns to protect oneself from the forces of nature so must one discover how to protect oneself appropriately during the changing times now upon us.

A warrior does not take things personally, but uses what comes to gain awareness, to train in combat with energetic forces that all must encounter during times of change. A warrior does not feel defeat for there is only triumph in the path of heart.

Even though the heart itself may feel battered at times, the warrior is certain that the path is right. A warrior knows that the heart soon mends and the path soon brightens again.
