The Path of the Warrior

"It's up to us. We can spend our lives cultivating our resentments and cravings or we can explore the path of the warrior - nurturing open-mindedness and courage."

This is a quote from the book I'm reading... "The Places That Scare You" by Pema Chodron.

This inspires me. I want to be a warrior. I vow today to start nurturing my courage. I've been lining my bookshelf and bookmarks with armor. Now it is time to start sharpening my tools. If I write this down it's true... right? If I say it to myself... It can be realized. 
Today I vow to start chipping away at my resentments. Today I vow to start letting go of my cravings. I will start by bowing to Miss Chodron. Thank you for these words. 

This is the first time I've "blogged" anything. I hope I did ok.
