You're too kind.

Finding the nautical metaphor wanting, I was actually considering revising this earlier and had forgotten about it with the events of the day.

Since you have reminded me of the opportunity, here is what I came up with:

As a skillful pilot plies the waves, so too must we apply the rudder of intention and the sail of resolve to navigate the vagaries of fortune. Be your most authentic self in every moment and try not to get attached to any particular outcomes; life gives you what you need, even if it isn't what you want at the time.
