The Original Lone Wolf

Star Maiden was a comfortable loner.
Maybe the original lone wolf.
Which is odd when you realize they mate for life.
It is time to make your position known.
This mantra came to her in a dream.
She was a wolf, running ahead of the pack.
She began to howl. She could feel her power.
She was ready to make her position known.
To unleash herself from the pack.
The others began to yip
She trusted herself and ran off
Utilizing her own energy
Thrilled with her newfound power.

Oh to stand alone with the power of spirit as your only source of life and strength. Ectasy and awareness. It takes courage to stand alone, but one is never really alone in spirit. Have a great week Caren! Hugs, Bill

I have done it, and it is NOT easy. I did it in a graduate class once after the teacher gave all of us F's six tests in a row - and I got up and started shouting when he started shouting, and we shouted until F's came out of my mouth too! It was horrible!
