In a moment of self-realization, a friend and I discovered that we are the Calvary we had always hoped would reinforce the front lines. We are the Calvary, and today we are fighting on multiple fronts.
With only our ideas and intellect, we battle timidity, fear-mongering, and irrationality on a daily basis. With only tin cans on a string, we shout over those with institutional microphones. With only the desire to enrich our nation and our future generations, we fight those who desire to enrich only their allies and themselves.
More often than not we have lost these battles, and we are likely to lose more. Yet, I wish this to be a testament for the ideals we stood for. And maybe one day, on our ideas alone victory will be ours.
