Do I need to ride every wave?

I don't need to ride every wave.
I don't need to chase every hype.
What I know now is enough.
Enough to solve problems.
Enough to understand.
To connect.
To decide.

I don't need to ride every wave.
Surfers choose the best ones.
At times they return shore,
with no wave rode.
Still, with a drawn smile.

I don't need to ride every wave.
People say things are unavoidable.
A guru scared me with a buzzword,
so critical last month,
but now...
The guru comes with another.
"Unavoidable?
Unavoidable has passed!"

You don't need to ride every wave.
Sure, choose some.
As you see fit,
like surfers,
who had fun,
because they waited,
still, with a smile drawn.
