Don’t let a few large
waves capsize your vessel. Too many people are busy manning the lifeboats when
they should still be manning the helm. Stand there with the saltwater hitting
your face like a handful of pellets. Everybody has some adversity from time to
time, that’s the way of the world. Maintain your post on the bridge and sail
your way out of troubled waters. Use the compass of the Dao to find your
direction and ride smoothly beneath the stars. If we gave up so easily, we
wouldn’t get much done.
