Oracle – Becoming a Warrior

Aspiration – The Future

Warriors Aspire – To aspire means to yearn for something better, to be able to imagine something better and to begin to mentally create a pathway to improvement. To eternally yearn for improvement means the ultimate can never be reached, and it is the process itself – the devotion to that process – that becomes the religion of the Warrior.

Warriors Create a Future Worth Having – Without this effort all our futures would fade into entropy, a constant winding down into muck, inertia and dissolution. Understanding the Warrior’s commitment to betterment means accepting our obligation to advance the lives not only of ourselves and our loved ones, but unmet and even unborn others.

Self-Improvement is a Joy – Even though the Ultimate can never be reached by definition and is always just ahead, it gives us a concept of Paradise as a reality we can work for. This work provides the deepest pleasure and connection between persons that is achievable on this planet.

#Haiku: Freshness

Each nonpareil moment
Liquefies,
Cascades into
Flowing future
