‘Warriors fear surrender. They are proud and defiant. They will fight to the death for what they believe in. They will struggle to conquer. Love is not about conquest. The truth is a man can only find true love when he surrenders to it. When he opens his heart to the partner of his soul and says: “Here it is! The very essence of me! It is yours to nurture or destroy.”‘
– Odysseus, to Andromache, Lord Of The Silver Bow
This is deep! I suspect it may be true. I think I am a warrior quite a lot of the time in my life. Being more aware of this might give me more choice about when to be a warrior and when to surrender!
