the raven and the wolf poem

I simply cannot make myself see life through the same lens they use. Night after night they met. However, lately this story has come to symbolize the two parts of myself; the part that wants so badly to live a life that makes her family proud, that makes her a little carbon copy of them and the part who is so different she often feels like a changeling or that she was switched at birth.There is no way to reconcile the two parts for in allowing one part to follow the other it like the wolf or the raven becomes something else.

The wolf would roam at night because he liked the smells then the best. Perfect comment, thank you!Yes we often tie ourselves up in words when one is perfectly adequate! To give myself permission to be like the Raven and look one last time at what has been, then go live my life, go see what might be.I think I might be getting my own apartment soon and the possibilities just open exponentially from there, so, I am beginning.

Let you in on a little secret, this birdie is scared breathless. He said, that if she truly loved him, she would give up her wings, turn her back on the skies and come with him.The raven had tears in her eyes when she told him that if he loved her, he would grow wings, leave the forest behind and soar the skies with her.They stared at each other for a long time, both thinking of a life with the other and without what they loved most about they lives they currently led.
