Take it from an old warrior.... Here are the important parts;
1. To win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.
2. He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot will be victorious.
3. Opportunities multiply as they are seized.
4. Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.
5. Build your opponent a golden bridge to retreat across.

Interestingly enough, this works in business and home life as well as war...

OMG I thank you for that!! I studied only 2 parts last night and had 2 questions all about them 2 hours ago!

But hey I remember you were a teacher. And you were a warrior Did you fight students at school? Or was it the Principle?

P.S.: I can't see your pict here... KK, you usually have the same problem, please confirm it?

I spent some time (25 years ago) as Director of Academic Programs and 'Dorm parent' at a small private high school for 'students at risk.' These were kids who'd been thrown out of half a dozen different schools before being sent to this one, where their parents spent enough money to be promised that they would never be sent down... Being attacked by students was pretty common. Not a problem.

I'm in regular contact with about 10 of them these days on Facebook.

Nope, unfortunately it's not that simple . If you listen to Trouble Blues and the mystery song in my signature you'll hear there are some differences between the two.
Plus I checked the lyrics in Trouble Blues and they're not the same with the other one.
That's why I'm asking around. My Google-Fu has come up empty so far.
Thanks for the effort

Coffee, coke and a blessedly cool, rainy day.
