Island Memory

Micronesia, Amnesia, and the Charm of Being Forgotten

You may have heard of Micronesia, an archipelago in Oceania. But very few people have heard of the similar country Amnesia, as it has all but been forgotten. Feels like that sometimes here on Britain's most remote inhabited island. But isn't that the charm?

The picture above is the example: in 2011, the South Pacific Isle of Pines in the archipelago of New Caledonia; today, the Sub-Arctic Shetland Archipelago on Fair Isle. What a difference a decade makes. It is all about today, after all. Isn't that what we have left?

Today is the island we have left.
Word Worth Keeping
