David and Goliath-brawl for Zimbabwe

Elections in Zimbabwe are nearing. Potential violence which typified all past elections is closing in. Apathy and anxiety rule the roost.

Citizens could learn from the story of David and Goliath. This story is about leveraging the qualities of wisdom and courage to overcome barbarous mighty oppression. On the one hand, you have highly geared oppressive forces going against a quest for fairness. If the fighters for fairness leverage their capacity, they will overcome.

After elections the economy will see battle. Industry is devolving and infrastructure is decaying. Debt still remains massive, while taxes are inadequate. Like David, will the citizenry see this as an opportunity rather than threat. David saw Goliath as a big target.

In living we all endure Goliath challenges. Big challenges can be seen either as terrors, or opportunities for courage and ingenuity. In being thoughtful and  fair, we are getting close to living our potential.
