The Mast
Ah, the beautiful stays on a sailboat! They are like the supportive arms of a friend, holding up the mast so it can catch the wind and carry you on your journey. Just like how we all need support sometimes, the stays keep the mast strong and steady as you sail through the waves of life. Remember, it's okay to rely on others for support, just like the stays rely on the mast to guide the boat safely to its destination.
