how to actualize ourselves?
is gaffing dorado our sort of thing? did we get enough of it?
i thought cracking beer mugs or spilling beer all over our shoes was something of the sort
in college is taping the keg male bonding? if beer goes all over when the keg is taped is that what we forgot? i thought it was proper to make the beer go all over
are ratchets enough? what if we lied down an oil pit to change filters on the boat?
is checking the score of the game something of that kind of thing?
what if the catcher hit a homerun in a baseball game? if we all get excited we got it right
is going out in rain gear something else too? we might want to see how much wind or rain we can handle or if the waves drench us as we are running offshore we must get something out of it
if we want to see who can freedive on the most lobsters we get to know each other right
something about shooting game birds in a farm field i guess?
who wants to duck dive to get out in the surf right? we might do all sorts of far out things catching waves we still walk off drenched or shivering...a long sleve shirt might look like a paint smock once we get back to the shoreline...sure we get chills when we are up in a wave...we still for the most part we thought we were freecliming then fell into a rivine when a wave sent us gasping for air

Like the seaweed and the little fish and the seashells and the sand and the foam seeming to be everywhere among the waves hitting a coast if you look for them, but often you wade through not thinking of any of them
But you make the difference Jim, by noticing everything and also noticing yourself and others with you, how sometimes there is show off, sometimes togetherness sometimes submission, sometimes something else again.
Great piece!
Warm regards. Partha.
