Abstract

What is a Warrior of light? Each and everyone who understands the miracle of life, who fights for what is right and who never gives up until reaching their goal. Warriors of light have dreams, dreams of being able to obtain their goals and win the appreciation they deserve. They would never be able to accept that people are brought low by drunkenness, loneliness or other wretchedness; to resign themselves to the unacceptable doesn’t bear thinking about. They are aware of their strengths and weaknesses, do not devote themselves to wasting time on struggles they know they cannot win, but instead convince their opponents how little there is to gain by fighting. On the other hand, when they have carefully thought through their decisions they don’t wait for their realization; the right decision yields a profit and a wrong one a loss, and also more knowledge and wisdom that can be used the next time. (Coelho, 2003).
