Not so deep inside every man is a savage flame that cannot be tamed, only directed.
There is no need to fight this, only a need to temper and hone it like the blade of a sword in the fires of a skilled metal worker.
Raw, unformed, this energy is wild, chaotic, without direction or control, it does more harm than good.
Temper that energy, direct it by reason and wisdom, it does more good than harm.
Every boy must face trials to put what they discover about themselves to the test and temper those discoveries further with experience. They must face these trials in order to become complete.
This is lacking, even in many Martial Arts Schools where they should not be lacking.
I realize this is one-sided and focuses solely on Boys and Men, but in this day and age, it is a focus that seems necessary as many are demonized for this when it should be treated as sacred to be a keeper of this internal Savage flame.
Something that is truly necessary.
