NEGOTIATING THE WIND

"Life is like sailing. You can use any wind to go in any direction. " ~Robert Brault~
 
It's easy to be flip about our future, which is the opposite extreme from being paralyzed by fear. But perhaps, good health and the most favorable outcome falls somewhere in-between. Maybe, we can be both appropriately cautious and appropriately prepared.
     We are like sailors. Though we cannot control the wind, we can still manage to get from point A to point B and arrive at our intended destination so long as we set the sails and do the proper trimming and steering.
 
I plan for the future, but remain open to possibility. I am willing to adapt and improvise in order to stay on course.
