THE POWER OF ONE

The tiny ant and locust accomplish nothing--
until they unite--each in their kind .
Once they are assembled and their goal is set forth,
they change whatever is in their way.
Then, when they accomplish their goal,
they disperse and become unseen again.
Like us.

Never!
Ever!
Forget the Power of One!
ONE! is invincible
for it always
stands alone.
Like us.
