Masts and sails in a sailing ship.

Grandad Valdemar aloft in the crosstree of the foremast of an unknown sailing ship. This would be the late 20ties or early 30ties.

“Bring On the Giants” is the admission that life is hard, that the only choice we have is to put one foot in front of the other, and that sometimes we can’t do that alone. But not shouldering our share of the responsibility for improving our piece of the world around us is not an option if our lives are to have the meaning they are meant to. So that leaves with only one real way forward: find the One we can wholly depend on, then do it.
