Necessitas: The Path to Peace

Perhaps we are delighted by union,  
Yet solace won’t be our great solution.  
The world will forever be indifferent.  
Man enacts his wrath and lament.  
Reject this precedence; augment your strength.  
Invoke your necessitas; express your will.  
Strive for self-overcoming,  
Work toward self-mastering.  
This is the path to stability,  
This is the path to peace.
