Long ago, I was told by a far wiser man than I that our will hones wrath into a mighty weapon.  But, he told me, it is sorrow that forges our will.  I have meditated on these words often; they have given me strength when I was weak and hope when my faith grew ragged.  I believe these words to be true.  They reveal much.
A blade, too finely honed, loses strength. Though sharp, it cannot cut without being broken.  A forge, if crafted and refined endlessly, never produces.  A life cannot be lived completely in sorrow, nor can wrath be exchanged for infinite will.  Knowing this, I must attempt to put aside my suffering.  Though it hurts, I can no longer invest so much time in the wound I carry.  It is time to stop forging my will and start honing my wrath.
