The Wild Ones by Jeanette Amlie
At first I thought that my life had been saved. I was a little girl stuck in a raspberry briar when Canis appeared.Then he took me to Pneuma and together they woke up a magical world for me. But that is another story.

Those tiny wings budded forth from the love and forgiveness that Pneuma instilled within me. Canis gave me the courage to believe in myself. Together they allowed me to rise above a world I didn't feel a part of. Yet I had to return to that very world feeling even more different than before.

Over time the wings became a heavy burden to bear in a world where I was forced to hide them. I longed to be with my companions and eventually I could stand it no longer and left to live in the wild with them.

I don't regret it. They taught me things that no human ever could have. It gave me time to let the beliefs of the human world fall away. Now they tell me that my time has come and my years of preparation are over. They tell me it is time once again to rejoin humanity with a more humane understanding. Ha! How ironic that I had to learn this from animals rather than people!

I am afraid. I don't know that I am ready. I thought I would feel different about them by now. But how could I really after years without them? My human family knows that I am alive and well. They just can't fathom the choices I've made or why.

My companions will remain near by on the fringes, so I won't really be alone. But I cannot rely on them for my strength and compassion anymore. It is time to find that within me. I do not know what will happen, but I do know that I am willing to follow their guidance and the intuition that has been growing inside me during our time together. Somehow, it will be okay.........

    Welcome to my Painted Journey. I invite you to join me as I explore this process of intuitive painting, uncensored writing and somatic awareness. This work is calling me out of my Spiritual/Creative Closet.  It is a passionate adventure in re-discovering why I am here and I know that by sharing the journey we will grow and learn together! ♡ Jeanette
