The  beaches of Mauritius-Africa Write? Right! Blogging is literature in a hurry. Tourists    generally, don't see a country as it is, they   see them as theirs is.This requires expending tremendous amounts of energy to have so called   “normal” experiences   on vacations; where taking a safari is actually seeing all the caged stuffed animals in the zoo. Travelers have occurrences, while abroad. They cannot be created,   they    undergo them.   They are somatic and     visceral and in-your-face. Too bad my videos don’t include SMELL-avision. The stench to my olfactory is awesome! without imitation, without precedent.   For these occurrences     to become an adventure,    however, it is necessary to recount them later at a cocktail party or blogging about them. Should I kill myself, or have a cup of   Starbucks coffee? When I travel these unusual places of poverty and despair,   I   must...

Once Upon A Cruise

Missed The Boat But Ill go down with the ship I'm having  a “STAR moment” ---Something To Always Remember, as I am by the ocean, with the Disney Dream over my shoulder. I've got stories about the sea, and cruising, and traveling; part of the creative struggle to generate a new future and energy necessary for change. Storytelling is my native language. I'm wired for them. They shatter time and space and jump over technology, taking me to authentic experience(s) that evoke stored information(learning) in a patterned way (living). Like a shaman or an illusionist, the story of my life and the life of my story have merged-from the one I imagined populated with imaginary adventures and people to the one I am actually living- Art does imitate life. The facts of (my) life have become personalized and humanized and the reward for experience , has become not wisdom but joy. The Holy Grail of my storytelling is when someone else tells my stories to others, because it is hard to hate a...
