“The warrior of light does not allow hatred into his heart.
When he prepares to enter a battle, he remembers what Christ said: “Love your enemies.” And he obeys.
But he knows that the act of forgiveness does not oblige him to accept everything; the warrior must not bow his head, because then he would lose sight of the horizon of his dreams.
He accepts that the opponent has appeared in order to test his courage, his perseverance, his capacity to make decisions. The opponent compels him to fight for his dreams.
The experience gathered in battles makes the warrior of light stronger.”
Paulo Coelho
And this applies no less to the battles with our inner enemy.
