Waste of time

The warrior of light chooses his enemies.

He knows what he is capable of;

he does not have to go about the world
boasting his qualities and virtues.

Nevertheless, there is always someone
who wants to prove himself better than he is.

For the warrior, there is no "better" or worse:
everyone has the necessary gifts for his particular path.

But certain people persist.

They provoke and offend and
do everything they can to irritate him.

At that point, his heart says:
" Do not respond to these insults, they will not increase your abilities.
You will tire yourself needlessly."

A warrior of light does not waste his time
listening to provocations.

He has a destiny to fulfil.


~~ Paulo Coelho ~~
