A threat need not provoke a response
if it is not taken up.

True. Forgive me for admitting to once in awhile enjoying when like minded sharpen their fighting skills and respond to threats. One example is the fencing scenes between Catherine Zeta-Jones and Antonio Banderas, their swordplay in the movie; The Legend of Zorro.
so deeply true…and I believe that there are so many of us nowadays on a pilgrimage. it reminds me of Castaneda’s book on the teachings of don juan, when he talks about the four natural enemies of men: fear, power, clarity and age (i think that’s the right order) and how we must defy each of these natural enemies in order to continue our journey…
thank you for this profound and beautiful reminder of purpose.
