May 2016
Cowards, runs among us like a rewarded trophy.
We see it.
We read about it.

But within all written stories and noted remarks by witnesses.
We always aware that one stands alone against a hosts of many.

Jesus, stood alone although he had followers.
Only a few stood with him.
Others protested against him.

Even during the struggles of Civil Rights with the segregationist.
We saw many burned, hung and abused.
While some stood silently by and secretly participated without fighting against the hate.
While one stand alone against the cowards of strength in numbers.

Anything wrong that ever get righted correctly.
You'll always find one standing alone.

Like the sheriff played by Gary Cooper in High Noon movie.
After defeating those that create the threats than you notices others wants to come out and congratulate you.

No words ever truer than noticing you're the one standing alone.
