Only one way possible for change
And that has absolutely nothing to do with the outside winds
After all, they have always been there
Their strength even varies
But that was always known
Did the boat take a turn you didn’t want?
But what was that?
Was it inattention, lack of prudence, lack of perseverance?
Or was it still great confidence in yourself, skills, or experience?
We are all subject to this
And sometimes, subject to more than that
Life goes its way, one way or another
For or against the tide
We often want to change it
Is this possible?
Just with a step of faith
