I was not the sort who wanted to send the ship to the bottom, although there were those In the water with me who wanted everyone to drown along with him. My only concern was that the ship should have me on it! . I just wanted to get back onboard, dry off my clothes, clean my wounds, stretch my four limbs in the heart of the sun. And I wanted one thing more... I harbored a secret hope. I wanted to participate in determining the course of the ship. Experience of the last twenty four years clarified one thing for me. One person might be able to hold onto the rudder of the ship, but one person was not enough to steer it where he wanted it to go.
