David Review (Spoilers)

I went to watch the movie David by Angel Studios with my mom and my brother. As the title of the movie suggests, the movie tells the Biblical story of David who is anointed by the prophet Samuel to be king in place of Saul. After he defeats Goliath, David becomes well-liked amongst the people. This makes King Saul jealous, and he suspects that David is trying to take the kingdom away from him, so he tries to kill him.

Searching Then Daydreaming

Searching for one’s tribe

Is not easy.

Especially if you’re faint hearted

And meeting fellow humans makes you queasy.

In fear of ridicule and rejection.


What if I embarrass myself?

What if they don't care

About my attempts to connect?

Exhausted by these worries, 

I give in to my reclusive side

And focus on more important tasks

Like daydreaming about mermaids dancing at high tide.
