@Hilarity: Whatever you do should be done for the sake of your master and parents, the people in general, and for posterity. This is great compassion. The wisdom and courage that come from compassion are real wisdom and courage. When one punishes or strives with the heart of compassion, what he does will be limitless in strength and correctness. Doing something for one's own sake is shallow and mean and turns into evil.

Jenrya: *smiles back* "Exactly, Koishi. I hate seeing people get hurt, so I like to avoid getting myself and my friends in dangerous situations."

Wizard Needs Food Badly@Jenrya: Satori: But your friends...they say you are too careful. That if you don't risk something, you can't win anything. They say...that you are scared.

Join us in our quest to play all RPG video games! Moving on to disc 2 of Grandia!When one has made a decision, even if it will be very difficult to succeed by advancing straight ahead, it will not do to think about going at it in a long roundabout way. One's heart may slacken, he may miss his chance, and by and large there will be no success. The Way of the Samurai is one of immediacy, and it is best to dash in headlong.
Jenrya: "Well, I guess you could call me scared."
Terriermon: "Yep, yep. Jenrya here never has any fun because he's such a worrywart!"
Jenrya: "I think staying alive is more important than having fun."
Terriermon: "Yeah, but you taking worrying to a ridiculous level! You didn't even trust these nice people when they were given us food!"
Jenrya: "Yeah, sorry about that. It just seemed a little suspicious, but I was wrong. We can trust these people."
Terriermon: "That's what I said all along! Just lighten up, Jen! Moumentai~"
"No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" ~ Sonic The Hedgehog, Sonic Colours*shrugs* I still think it's quite possible to act in accordance with your own self interest and still not be evil. The trickster gods of myth did things primarily for their own amusement, and although their actions may have seemed chaotic or even cruel, they helped people and taught them valuable lessons.
Koishi: Well, I think...
Satori: We are leaving, Koishi.
Koishi: Wait, what?
Satori: We do not have time for this. We need to keep going.
Koishi: ...fine. Farewell, everyone! See ya later Terriermon, Jenrya!
Satori: ...goodbye.
*they fly off*
Join us in our quest to play all RPG video games! Moving on to disc 2 of Grandia!Terriermon: "Aw, do you really have to leave so soon? Oh well. Bye~" *waves them goodbye*
Jenrya: "See you later, then."

Wizard Needs Food Badly@Hilarity: The Way of a Samurai is in reality very simple. One needs only to serve one's master faithfully, respect one's family and the gods, and daily strive to better one's self, and never thinking that one is ever truly finished. One must know one's own insufficiencies and never in one's whole life think that one has succeeded. Such a person is one who truly knows the Way. It is written - "I do not know the way to defeat others, but the way to defeat myself."

This one is glad that you have come to understand this so readily. That in and of itself marks you as one who is able to correct one's self swiftly when one is unknowing or in error. This is a good quality to have. When one merely tries to cover one's own faults rather than correct them, only evil and shame can come about as a result.
