"Peaceful Warrior" is autobiographical which means we can argue with it, if we want to, but the dude who put it together says it's real; so, it might confound our small minds, but maybe, they needed confounding? One of the main tenants in this great story is the effect of living in the now; Jesus said that the past is a lesson and the future doesn't exist, only today, today is what we need to focus on. As a result, we begin to see things in a new way, the today way, it sounds corny, but in reality, it is powerful. When you allow useless worries over things you cannot change, the past, and useless worries over things that may not get here, the future, to affect your present state of joy; you've allowed it - I hear too many people blame being negative, self centered, whining babies on Satan; he didn't steal their joy, they surrendered it to false demons of past and future before he had to! As a result they are miserable, they are full of worry and doubt and as far as great witnesses for Christ, they are dead in the water and waiting to sink. Tell it like it is, be real about being a child of the King! Be understanding about any situation in the right now that is challenging you, know God is there with you, call upon the Lord, He will not let you down!
Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day [is] the evil thereof.
