Nonyielding

"When in the arena,
Yield not to an aggressor.
When outside the arena,
Affirm compassion."

Maybe this is just a fancy way of saying that old thing, pick your battles. No matter what is at stake, I do know that one can be firm without being harsh, matter-of-fact without being rude, strong without being stubborn. I have learned this from my convictions, which I need now more than ever.
