The She Wolf

The She wolf is a creature that most others find to be quite mythical, but I assure you, she is very real. Like every wolf, she continues to learn about life and the reality of nature as it comes, taking these lessons and applying them as need be. She is fierce and gentle, sometimes fiercely gentle. With teeth that can kill and a heart that can embrace the most wounded of souls.

One of the favorite things the She wolf does is wander through the woods. She interacts with the myriad of creatures and plants and spirits, something most other wolfs have forgotten about or think they are too busy to understand, wolves focusing too much on being wolves. She knows better though, for if she ignores those things she feels, they will call her attention anyway.

She was young once, but those days are now changing. Youth has matured into wisdom, and though her spirit remains playful and innocent, she knows the transient nature of being. Don't be fooled though, the She wolf never takes anything too serious, for life and reality provide a surplus of seriousness to fill her days if she chooses. The She wolf has learned how to live. She will chase her own tail if she feels like playing.

She is a mother to all the wolves, and has an intuition that cannot be coupled. She roams from pack to pack because she is needed. When a pack is wounded and has no other resource, the She wolf will appear. For she is always watching, always listening, and always knows when and where she is needed. It can be a lonely life sometimes, but the She wolf takes her payment in knowing that she is a catalyst for change in all those that meet her.

She has attempted to settle into one pack time and time again, tried to be accepted, to participate in their social customs and be just like them. Try as she might though, there always comes a time when the She wolf gets an insatiable itch and must wander back far into the woods to listen to herself. The packs know this, she knows this, and the earth knows this. The She wolf always must listen to her soul, for it is her soul that knows all, her heart that provides the blood to give life, and her spirit that leads the way. Try as many have to domesticate the She wolf, she never tires of sleeping under the trees on the high mountains able to see the stars. The She wolf is an animal that feels safest while exposed and vulnerable in the vastness of existence. It is the only way she knows how to truly live.
