We live in a violent society. We live in a society that often glorifies violence. Yet, it is the weak that are violent. A violent life can only end badly and in sorrow. Live by the sword, die by the sword. It is the strong that seek peace and resolution. We can avoid great hardship by always looking to stay in harmony. Yet, there may be times when we are faced with a situation that causes us to defend ourselves, we must try to do so with a peaceful heart. That is the ultimate victory.
