Warrior ethos
What battle do you fight?
Willingly?
With gusto?
Every day?
The Latin root for the word "passion" is "pati"
which means suffering.
What suffering do you choose to endure
to transmute into a raw energy
a power
that fuels your passion?
Channel your warrior ethos.
Do not go quietly into the night.
When your enemy's barrage of arrows blot out the sun
fight the good fight
in the shade.
