Each had made the concession. Now is to concede with dignity.
That's not how Sun Zu would have put it. In his words:
“Energy may be likened to the bending of a crossbow; decision,
to the releasing of a trigger.” ―
Therefore where Sun Tzu failed, Caesar prospered:
"The rule is, not to besiege walled cities if it can possibly be avoided." ―
Caesar and the Battle of Alesia.
The Siege of Alesia is among the most celebrated battles of Roman times and stands as one of Gaius Julius Caesar’s finest victories. The battle was the last major engagement between the Gauls and Rome, precipitating the end of the Gallic Wars and ending Celtic dominance of Western Europe.
Of course, these are military references. They are pale in comparison to a Sufi's heart overflowing with Neverending Love:
"I want to sing like the birds sing, not worrying about who hears or what they think". - Rumi
Can you imagine what it is like to be able to *[] (offer) your heart wholeheartedly?
