The writing below is the introduction of a warrior.

“When a warrior learns to stop the internal dialogue, everything becomes possible; the most far-fetched schemes become attainable.”-Carlos Castaneda

“Squire!”

That’s the first time I’d ever been called that. At the time I had no idea what it meant, as much as I want to say I learned the meaning from books, I can’t. I googled it. As much as technology teaches you, it can only take you so far. A true learning experience comes from someone who has first-hand knowledge of your topic. One’s mind is one’s greatest weapon. Knowledge sharpens the mind the way a knight sharpens his sword. One’s mind will lead to physical use. The use of physical weapons and means to protect the weak and innocent will become clear in time. Like everything in life it takes time and dedication. A warrior is different than the average man, a warrior will put himself in harms way to protect not only his loved ones, but the ones he doesn’t even know. A warrior sees neither good or bad days, just days. The same thing goes for challenges. He figures out a way to overcome them while the average man figures out a way to avoid them.

On top of physical training, there comes knowledge. Nowadays I’m told to watch certain movies and read books. It’s interesting to apply what one learns in actual real life situations. A warrior becomes more aware of what goes around himself. That’s what gives him the advantage, at one point his surroundings can change drastically. One moment a clear day, the next a raging storm. As I continue, I will go deeper into what warriorism I and my comrades fall into.
