The warrior of the light believes. Just like children believe.
Because he believes in miracles, miracles begin to happen. Because he is sure that his thought can change his life, his life begins to change. Because he is sure that he will find love, this love appears.
From time to time he is disappointed. Sometimes he gets hurt.
And then he hears comments like: "that fellow's so naive!"
But the warrior knows that it is all worthwhile. For each defeat he counts two victories in his favor.
All those who believe know this.
