He tries to establish what he can truly rely on. And he always checks that he carries three things with him: faith, hope, and love.
If these three things are there, he does not hesitate to go forward.
The Warrior of the Light knows that no one is stupid and that life teaches everyone—however long that may take.
He always does his best and expects the best of others. Through his generosity, he tries to show each person how much they are capable of achieving.
Some of his companions say: “Some people are so ungrateful.”
The Warrior is not discouraged by this. And he continues to encourage others because this is also a way of encouraging himself.
Every Warrior of the Light has felt afraid of going into battle.
Every Warrior of the Light has, at some time in the past, lied or betrayed someone.
Every Warrior of the Light has trodden a path that was not his.
Every Warrior of the Light has suffered for the most trivial of reasons.
Every Warrior of the Light has, at least once, believed that he was not a Warrior of the Light.
Every Warrior of the Light has failed in his spiritual duties.
Every Warrior of the Light has said “yes” when he wanted to say “no.”
Every Warrior of the Light has hurt someone he loved.
That is why he is a Warrior of the Light, because he has been through all this and yet has never lost hope of being better than he is.
The Warrior always listens to the words of certain thinkers, such as these by T.H. Huxley:
“The consequences of our actions are the scarecrows of fools and the beacons of wise men.”
“The chessboard is the world; the pieces are the gestures of our daily lives; the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us, but we know that his play is always fair, just, and patient.”
The Warrior simply has to accept the challenge. He knows that God never overlooks a single mistake made by those he loves, nor does he allow his favorites to pretend ignorance of the rules of the game.
A Warrior of the Light does not postpone making decisions.
He thinks a great deal before taking action. He considers his training, as well as his responsibilities and duties as a teacher. He tries to remain calm and to analyse each step as if it were of supreme importance.
However, as soon as he has made a decision, the Warrior proceeds: He has no doubts about his chosen action, nor does he change direction if circumstances turn out differently from how he had imagined them.
If his decision is correct, he will win the battle, even if it lasts longer than expected. If his decision is wrong, he will be defeated and he will have to start all over again—only this time with more wisdom.
But once he has started, a Warrior of the Light perseveres until the end.
A Warrior knows that his best teachers are the people with whom he shares the battlefield.
It is dangerous to ask for advice. It is even more dangerous to give advice. When he needs help, he tries to see how his friends resolve—or fail to resolve—their problems.
If he is in search of inspiration, he reads, on the lips of his neighbor, the words that his guardian angel is trying to say to him.
When he is tired or lonely, he does not dream about distant men and women; he turns to the person beside him and shares his sorrow or his need for affection with them—with pleasure and without guilt.
A Warrior knows that the farthest-flung star in the Universe reveals itself in the things around him.
A Warrior of the Light shares his world with the people he loves.
