He remembers the five rules of combat set down by Chuan Tzu - faith, companions, time, space and strategy.
Like the fighter, the Warrior is aware of his own immense strength; he never fights with anyone who does not deserve the honor of combat.
He is now walking from his dream.
Often, warriors find their lives meaningless.
A Warrior of the Light does not accept gifts from his enemy.
He is as wise as a serpent and as innocent as a dove.
With confidence, he open the door of life presented to him.
The Warrior tries to enjoy the small everyday things of life.
He gives before he is asked.
He has learned that God uses solitude to teach us how to live with other people.
When he wins the battle, the Warrior celebrates.
When the Warrior takes on a commitment, he keeps his word.
The Warrior of the light knows that when somebody wants something, the whole Universe conspires in their favor.
He too knows how to lose.
