072. Warrior of Light

A sword may not last very long, but the warrior of light must.

That is why he never allows himself to be deceived by his own abilities and thus avoids being taken by surprise. He gives each thing the value it deserves.

Often, when the warrior is pondering grave matters, the devil whispers in his ear: ‘Don’t worry about that, it’s not important.’

At others, when he is faces by banalities, the devil says to him: ‘You should pour all your energies into resolving this situation.’

The warrior does not listen to what the devil is telling him; he is the master of his sword.
