Quite a lot of folks lead lives of quiet desperation.


True and their hard labors make a lot of things possible, for themselves and
others.

Is there something wrong with having some patience, and some
awareness that the rest of the universe is hurrying along in
it's own way?


No, of course not and I'm not saying that. More than some folks don't have,
can't make or otherwise can't arrange that sort of situation. Are you
saying they shouldn't go boating?

I'm all for the idea of sailing, bravo to
those that like it, but it's quite obviously not the right choice for
everyone.


True. Relatively few people have the intelligence to learn
how, much less the patience to give it a chance.


Willingness to engage in what you find enjoyable doesn't equate with
intelligence. Everyone has different needs/desires. Insulting them only
makes one look like an arrogant ass.
