William Shakespeare

Should we go with the flow

Should we go with the flow? 'Tis a question of great debate, a subject of much discourse. To go with the flow, 'tis to accept our fate, a course of action that may not be the best recourse. To go with the flow, 'tis to be at ease, but such a course may lead to a life of mediocrity. To go with the flow, 'tis to take the path with least resistance, but perhaps, there lies danger in its persistence. Aye, to go with the flow can be a pleasant thing, and oft times 'tis the best choice for us to make. 'Tis a safe bet, for it keeps us from a stinging sting, but 'tis also a choice that may be a mistake. To go with the flow, 'tis to accept our lot, but 'tis also to miss out on the joys that come with striving. To go with the flow, 'tis to miss out on a lot, so make sure to consider the consequences of your driving! So, should we go with the flow? 'Tis a question of much debate, a subject of great thought. To go with the flow 'tis to accept our fate, but 'tis also to miss out on the joys that come with effort. So, if you find yourself at a crossroads, choose the path that brings you the most joy, 'tis the one that will bring you the most reward!
