The author's writing reflects his deep love and respect for the ocean from "summary" of Barbarian Days by William Finnegan
The sea was a vast expanse of mystery and beauty, calling out to me with its siren song. Its waves crashed against the shore with a rhythmic force that seemed to echo the beating of my own heart. I felt a deep connection to the ocean, as if it held the key to unlocking the secrets of the universe.
Every time I plunged into the cool embrace of the water, I was overcome with a sense of peace and serenity. The ocean was my sanctuary, a place where I could escape the chaos of the world and lose myself in its endless blue depths. I felt a profound gratitude for the sea, for all that it had given me and all that it had yet to teach me.
As I rode the waves, I could feel the power of the ocean coursing through my veins. It was a primal force, wild and untamed, yet somehow comforting in its familiarity. I was humbled by its majesty, by the sheer magnitude of its presence. I knew that I was just a speck in the vastness of the sea, a mere mortal in the face of such timeless grandeur.
The ocean was a living, breathing entity, teeming with life and energy. It was a world unto itself, with its own rhythms and patterns that seemed to dance in harmony with the ebb and flow of the tides. I marveled at the sheer diversity of life that called the ocean home, from the smallest fish to the largest whale.
In the embrace of the ocean, I found a sense of belonging that I had never known before.

And I knew that as long as it was there, I would never truly be alone.
