Enlightened Conqueror

Surrender is sweet

Revenge is eating fire

Forgiveness is the most nutritious banquet

Resentment is drinking poison in order to put out the fire

Compassion is loving yourself enough to feed others love

Honesty is the courage to see and cut through the denial of insanity, to eat truth

There are many paths of understanding in order to arrive at awareness.  Awareness of these, shall always protect, serve and honor the true conqueror of self. Enlightenment is his reward, love is his expense.
