The world prefers sheep, people who just go along to get along, to not make waves, to conform. To do the right thing- regardless- can be costly and painful, but is your character, integrity, courage, purpose. Do the right thing and let the chips fall where they may. I remember watching one of my favorite movies- Braveheart- and Robert the Bruce's father says that it is the ability to compromise that makes a man noble- a lie. The world is the wreck it is, our culture, our nation, because of compromises. Our culture now especially is at war with our roots, our heritage, what it means to be a man, chivalry, a gentleman, a warrior. The enemies of freedom and honor want it all to be in the dustbin of history. We must, not matter what the cost, stand for what is right, good, honorable. There are things worse than death. Having to look in the mirror everyday after selling out, compromising to get ahead or avoid difficulty, living a lie, and on and on. Do the right and honorable thing, and let the chips fall where they may. The narrow road to the narrow gate can be a costly, lonely one.

But in a world where many really bad, evil people roam, someone has to be willing to deal with the wolves or else the sheep will be slaughtered. This is where the warrior comes into play. Of course the warrior would rather live a peaceful, nonviolent life, but he doesn't have that option, at least not while maintaining a clear conscience. Of course you can be a warrior without ever killing another person. Many warriors have never been to war or had to kill another person. Nobody, at least nobody in his right mind, wants to kill another human being. This includes warriors. The difference is that the true warrior is willing to take this horrible step, if he has no other option, in order to protect himself or his loved-ones or innocent people who are in danger from some dangerous predator. It is not something he wants to do, but rather something he is compelled to do because of his love and duty to those around him. Thanks for the great comment Greywolf!

That is one reason I wrote the Warrior Wisdom books and Modern Bushido. They all try to make these principles, minus the techniques, understandable for people today. And I also make sure that they are appropriate for teens. The trick is getting them to read anything longer than a short picture on social networking sites or watching short clips on You Tube!

Musashi is cryptic at times, but his underlying message of what being Samurai and living by the code of Bushido really are, intertwined with his descriptions of Kenjutsu tactics and techniques might spark a light in a few kids, and it's amazing what a few kids can do.

As a school teacher, I can assure you that they are not hearing this at school or at home, at least the majority aren't. It is a scary situation developing with the younger people in this country. They are in desperate need of good guidance. Thank you for the comment Jamie! You are very welcome Jamie!

Sat, 14 Jan 2012 15:07:24 +0000 http://TheWisdomWarrior.com/?p=2604#comment-74 Thank you for this! There is a definite need for the next generation to hear this message. It's too bad that kids these days are being overwhelmed by everything else they see on TV or around their peers. I'm not even sure they are hearing this at school like they use to, and many kids aren't hearing it at home either. Thank you for this!
