Sword of virtue

Virtue borrowed is not virtue at all, but dogma. Virtue abandoned is nihilism. Virtue created, crafted with the hammer and anvil of life and forged in the fires of challenge, this is virtue.
Without virtue, Nihil can smell you. He can infect you and control you. The fool who welcomes dogma becomes a slave of Nihil. The idiot who embraces nothingness becomes the host for Nihil - a temporary skin, used and discarded.
What is virtue in the face of a meaningless universe? How is there purpose without a grand design? Throw yourself in the fire. Your fire. Seize the hammer. Your hammer. You are what is to be forged.
