Re: soul_Builder101
it's a good trait regardless... it just denies the easy option if you are caught in a war zone.  I honestly believe that resorting to violence is a failure - it is a solution that has shown to fail over and over and over, and yet we still turn to it so easily.

Re: Merkie
Thanks!  Somebody once said that you can be strong like a warlord or strong like an oak... of the two I would rather be an oak.

Re: Rockingrector
literally?  I have no idea, but metaphorically - I think it is possible to overcome early childhood conditioning towards violence and remain powerful while becoming utterly non-violent

Non-violence is a good trait...until you are caught in a war!

Excellent analysis of your spirit. There is strength in the quiet gentle visionary that is lost in the angry rush of battle. Roar on Lion!

This is really interesting and I'm left wondering if the lion really could ever lie down with the lamb? Is it possible to overcome basic instinct?

That was a humble confession from a king of the poetic forest

We know that lion ..you are a soft Lion ..lion for who needs ,who dare when all are full of fear ..who stand for the right ..who stays when every body away ...and i'm one of whom has to thank you ....you inspired me to write about a tigress which is me as some one dear calls me a tigress with a soft claws ..IS YOUR SIGN IS LION ?THEN YOU WILL GET SOME THING i wrote before about a Lion ..
