Do you prefer?

A life that’s smooth sailing or

A life that navigates rough seas

How can one even have a smooth sailing life?

Only when the person shuts off completely

From the surroundings and the inner voices

Living a life no different from that of an automaton’s 

But, what if a day comes when that smooth sail is halted?

Would the person be willing to change course, or

Would the person just jump off the ship?

Regardless of the option the person chooses

The life had no real meaning until that instant and 

Will never have going forward.
