393. Sisters and Brothers

To David, Goliath was a formidable foe
Despite how easy he was felled by a stone
To most of us the unknown is a challenge
Especially when you’re facing it alone
Take heart in knowing we’re all really scared
Bravery exists only when things are bad
No matter how hard we prepare for the worst
To get help and support we’re always glad
Without our clothes we are all the same
Though our bodies and brains may differ
While some take pride in what they have
Others are regal in their special allure
Live each day just as you are
Take consolation in being like some others
For regardless of what we do or don’t have
We are all God’s sisters and brothers
