Woo identity, spiritual, otherkin vs. human spirit 

So this is a big question I have for myself.

How much do I want to cling to this sense of a human side of me? Everything is mutable, particularly in the mental sphere, so I COULD embrace being otherkin.

But as much as I hate a lot of human institutions and ways of doing things, I still hold onto a human identity -- just one that wants to go away with the strange creatures to explore other fae kingdoms, leaving home far behind.

I love the wolf and sheep aspects of my brain, how they've formed within me, and I absolutely adore wolves and sheep on a spiritual level. But at the same time, they don't override that human side. It's more like I have a human in me that rides on a wolf and hugs on her sheep.

But she wonders if she wants to stay human anymore.

She's so upset at the ape brain that's so divisive by nature....

Not to say that wolves can't also be super selective based on sense of pack/family (the same word really). Humans are by no means the only ones that have in-groups and out-groups.

But there's so many greater ways to be.

Hmmm.

Thinking about it, I have not explored my Sola side enough. The one that sees the bigger picture.

I feel weird and awkward voicing all of this out loud. ^^;
