Sheathing the Sword ...

I first learned of this phrase when I read the Wheels of Time Series.
Its a sword technique that is used in the gravest of circumstances and only if there is no other choice.

It involves the action of taking ones sword and plunging it into our own body so that it will come out at the back of us and hurting the opponent in a self-sacrificing manner.

Its one of the most gruesome way to fight and its often lethal to both parties.

So why am I talking about this here.

The reason is because I have found lately that circumstances keep coming to make me think that the only way to resolve the issues arising around me is to "Sheath the Sword".

It is a drastic act.
A culdesac situation.
What a bloody horrible mess.
