There is a world of a difference between a sailor and a drifter. A sailor is in control of the boat of his destiny. He has a destination or a goal in mind, and has a pretty good idea how to get there. A drifter, on the other hand, is - well, adrift. He knows not where is headed, and often, knows not the folly of this. A sailor has a map, a drifter prefers a nap. He is in a perpetual stupor, relishing his sleep while the going is good. But when the sea gets choppy and rough, he has no means of controlling his craft. It is then that he realizes that it is not always good to take the easy way out and let things drift along.
