The Midge
Posted: Friday, 15 August 2008 |
Having now given up on being outside because we are being eaten alive by millions of these ferocious beasties....I have come indoors to sit and contemplate and in doing this find myself considering the wisdom of these clouds of midgies and why it is that they adore me; have also begun to adore my dear one and chomp at the dogs? All with furious abandon.
Consider this: Wisdom is a product of time and experience.
Marcel Proust said " We don't receive wisdom. We must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us"
So what is going on with midgie wisdom that they are crowding in on my heart space in Yell? What wisdom can they possible impart by biting every bit of me so that I roar out, find red lumps and bumps and itchy bits all over me. Even my hair is not immune. Do I need a midge invasion to escalate my emotions from calm to sreaming ahhhhhhhh!!!!?
Och probably I do. Maybe the midge in its wisdom is asking me to make noise above their normal buzz...then I might change my smell and inner energy and then they will buzz off. Sounds like a plan.
Watch out Unst and Fetlar! Human energy is rising in Yell and who knows what will come of this personal high energy and new wisdom. But the midgie population you have is about to increase, as the Yell midgie population decreases. Here is my plan from midgie wisdom now imparted. I intend to YELL
VERY LOUDLY
AND NOW
