May 21st
So if you want to read these in order I suggest you start with day 15
or 14. There's a preface here.
On the way to mbita I read metamorphasis by kafaka. On tuesday, when I
arrived at the holiday inn, my room was full of unwelcomed guests.
Several times I huffed out of the room, scared of the wasps, and sat
on the patio. One of these times I watched a horned beetle kareen Into
the side of the building, turn in the air and land on it's back near
me. I sat idle as it fought and struggled to get right side up.
The way kafka described that struggle was simply perfect. A few hours
later the beetle was nothing but a trail of red ants.
I guess what I get out of that is this: sometimes, you have everything
to gain by getting back on your feet.
-cheers
