The Boat Man

There are three kinds of people in this world. Those who believe in everything they are told and live happy and innocent lives. Then there are those who will question everything they are told to the point that they are incapable of enjoying life. Finally there are those who realize that questioning everything to the point of madness merely leads to unhappiness so are satisfied with not knowing everything, enjoying the simple things in life. These are the boat men. They are simple on the outside, but possess volumes of knowledge and wisdom on the inside. Furthermore, they are content in maintaining this illusion. I want to be the boat man. Am I mad?
