WARRIORS                                                       by Nite Hawk

A Warrior is born with three things: A Body, a Mind, and a Spirit. With these
three things a Warrior must build a life: A life of Balance, a life of Peace,
and a life of Will.

A Warrior is born with three things...

A BODY: Speed, Dexterity, and Reflexes.  These are the Gifts of the Gods to
a warrior.  Skills can be learned, but the Gifts are rare and are to be honed
to the sharpest of edges and used to build:  A life of Balance.

A physical battle is quite simply an exercise in which a Warrior is given the
opportunity to use the Gifts of the Gods and test the Skills learned on this
plane.  It will at times be necessary to use the Gifts and Skills known to a
Warrior to build:  A life of Peace.

Through training the development of the Gifts and Skills combined will become
a formidable weapon.  Perfect Balance, Peace of Mind, and an Indomitable
Spirit are necessary for a Warrior to build:  A life of Will.

A Warrior is born with three things...

A MIND: Intellect, Creativity and Common Sense, these are the compasses and
maps given a Warrior to help in navigating this existence.  In life a Warrior
will make mistakes.  The way these mistakes are handled will set the tone of
countless lives determining the measure of a Warrior's steel.  A Warrior will
accept responsibility for the actions taken, learn from them, and use the
experience to build:  A life of Balance.

A Warrior must constantly endeavor to be alert to the ever-changing
possibilities that lie on the path ahead, always drawing inspiration from the
path which lies behind, for Strength is the Knowledge drawn from the past,
and Discretion is the Wisdom of the Future which empowers the Warior to
build:  A life of Peace.

A Warrior's mind is to be honed constantly, for the mind alone is the
Most Formidable Weapon the Warrior will ever possess.  The Balance of
Knowledge and Wisdom IS the tempering of the steel that makes a Warrior
lending the Strength necessary to build:  A life of Will.

A Warrior is born with three things...

A SPIRIT: A Warrior will carry a Shield of Honor, the Strength of which is in
Perfect Balance with the Honor of the Warrior.

A Warrior will carry a Sword of Truth with an edge that mirrors the Warrior's
Honesty and Inner Peace.

A Warrior will wear a Helmet of Integrity with power matched only by the Will
of the Warrior.

While battles can be fought and won with the Well-Trained Body, while wars
can be waged and won with the Tempered and Sharpened Mind, the Most Perilous
Test a Warrior will face is the Test of the Spirit.  Here the Gods give no
Gifts.  A Warrior will have ONLY the Strengths of the Spirit that have been
developed in the short life on the physical plane.

A Warrior is born with three things:  A Body,  A Mind,  A Spirit...
With these three things a Warrior must build a Life:  A Life Eternal...

My name is Nite Hawk, and I was born with three things...
