Pardoning vs Accepting

Paulo Coelho

A Warrior of Light always keeps his heart clean of the sentiment of hate. To do so, he needs to pardon.

When he walks to a fight, he never forgets Christ's words: "love your enemies."

And the warrior obeys, but always remembers that Christ did not say: "like your enemies."

The act of pardoning does not oblige him to accept everything. A warrior must not lower his head, otherwise he loses sight of the horizon of his dreams.

Your story in my blog : A Dangerous Relation by Diana Balli

inspired by „Miss Christina" by Mircea Eliade

The voice was coming from outside, or was it his? Was it a dream, or reality?

His forehead was full of cold sweat. If it was a dream, it was a nightmare. He felt that he had no chance, only to submit his will.

But the pain and the dark shadows started to dissolve, and from them appeared the dear face of Diana, approaching him and whispering:

* It is over, no need to be afraid. Now you are in our room, our… My love.

The smell of her body, her perf

Today's Question by the reader : Alisha

In your books you have mentioned that "One should listen to their heart.." But how to recognise the voice of heart , how can a child distinguish between black and a white when he is taught that black is white, while white is black? How can you recognise your real mentor, who could enlighten your soul? How can you distinguish between your soul mate and someone to whom you are lured?

Only through expericience and intuition. You need to push aside rational explanations from your acts and think out

Patience and Speed

Paulo Coelho

A Warrior of Light needs patience and speed at the same time. The two biggest mistakes of a strategy are to act prematurely and to let the opportunity pass by. To avoid making these mistakes, the warrior copes with each situation as if it were unique, and applies no formulas, prescriptions or the opinions of others.
Caliph Moauiyat asked Omar Ben Al-Aas what was the secret of his great political skill: "I have never gotten involved in any matter without first studying the w

Your story in my blog : The fulfilled dream by Bernadett Doka

Emily was born in the heart of Europe. She was only 5 years old when she already knew in her heart that she was destined to marry a man from a far away land, who didn't speak her language, and lived by the ocean where the sun was always shining.

When she shared her dreams with others, they always said the same thing to her: "Foolish child! You're too young to know where life will take you! Stop daydreaming and do your homework! Concentrate on what is important in life!"

15 years went by, until on
