Work Is Prayer My universe is made of stories, not atoms: land, air and sea travel and the power of now. If I  wanted to be a multinational soul, I couldn't  do it in cities  where I taught English like New York or Los Angeles, Paris  or Tokyo alone-I needed to get  consecrated   by  sailing on the oceans.   It's a wonderful thing to get rid of everything and everybody and just go some place where you don't know anyone; where, as Melville said,"God's one and only voice is Silence."   If hollywood is loneliness under a  Hawaiian  palm tree,  then happiness is solitude sailing through   the fjords Ship Happens Living on a ship , might be summed up as monotony tinged with hysteria.
