Dear Humans,

I say “good luck” a lot. You’re getting married? Good luck. Have a kid on the way? Good luck. Taking your kid to college? Good luck. Starting a new job? Good luck. In a new relationship? Good luck. Buying a new car? Good luck.

Perhaps I ought to say “congratulations” or even offer a bit of advice. But I think good luck is better. Because we all know roughly where to steer our ships. We have maps and charts to consult (or YouTube), and we probably even have a loyal crew to help us with the mast and the rigging.

What we really need is a little wind in our sails.

Good luck,

Mr. Curt
