I want favored wind.

I am reading a book about writing.. which is really helping me as a writer and a teacher... and I came across this quote by Michel de Montaigne, a 16th century essayist:

"No wind favors him who has no destined port."

I dont have a destined port. I need one. I'll get back to you in December with my port destination. This will help clear up lots of things.

Where is your port? I'm grasping at straws here.
