I go for David
I love the underdog.
I am small in stature, just scraping past five feet. But my being is big, and it takes a special set of circumstances for me to be intimidated.
Like the bullies of the world, I have a strong distaste for the hegemon, the Empire, the Imperial. The Goliath.
I go for David. The irrelevant, ignored and often erased. The small.
David requires a different kind of strength – mental, emotional and strategic. David studies for weakness, opportunities and the fractures of arrogance that always infect Goliath.
The Earthly battle of the modern-day Goliath will not end with Goliath winning. Not in the long run. The Law of Gravity will ensure that.
To the Davids of the world, I stand with you. When we work together against the Goliath, Goliath’s fall will happen sooner.
And then our work of preventing the Davids from enacting Little Atrocities begins. If we do not, we will transform from David to Goliath, and the cycle repeats.
