Because traditionally pirates didn't have that hierarchical thing - it was outside monarchy and that type of milieu.

Even though you may be doing a service or providing a service.

If you were recognised as a pirate it was really to do with style.

Sometimes it's the "simple" and "unimportant" dreams - the mundane - which DO have a great deal of power.

I definitely believe in dreams in the daytime.

That ONE PIECE - it's what draws people to shipwrecks and to dark tourism.

[For a bit more about some aspects of Dark Tourism - PHILOSOPHER'S ZONE].

Just listened to an awesome podcast about moral development through the world of Jerry Maguire. It is on POP CULTURE PARENTING.

So I think about rewards; punishments; community recognition.

And the quest thing - this is SO LORD OF THE RINGS

[especially the teamwork - the reluctant teamworkers like Frodo and Bilbo - for different reasons].

And recognising intent [doing your best].

About dreams being supported or not by the people most immediately around you - a show called THIS TOWN [Stephen Knight] exemplifies this for me.

Eventually Dante draws in his brother and his father - his girlfriend; the record store merchant; his cousin and also a drummer.

More dreaming and more workable dreams!
