Yachts

I go through my life like a sail yacht in the ocean - small, vulnerable and yet sailing on, at the mercy of the wind and the waves. The yacht has, at best, limited control over the winds that propel it. Every once in a while, a favourable wind blows two yachts together. Eventually, the winds will change, and when they do, the yachts will go their separate ways.

I will always be thankful for these favourable winds, no matter what the consequence; for though the yachts do sail away, life is never the same again.
