I love this David and Goliath image. Two men and a tractor turn up to dislodge the massive cargo ship currently stuck fast in the Suez Canal. It feels like a metaphor for these crazy times. There’s us with our little arsenal of tricks trying to deal with the overwhelming corruption and stupidity of the world.
The stuck ship is this…

Those two men are this…

The tractor is this…

The rest of us are this…

Of course, the blockage of one of the world’s largest shipping channels is no laughing matter. It is a very big, very expensive problem for companies which ship goods around the world. It will impose a cost that will eventually be passed down to us consumers.
But maybe, like Covid, it’s another sign from the universe that we all need to slow down and reflect on just where society is at in this moment.
