LIFE IS

Life is...

A flowing waterfall of joy

The happiness of people's smiles

A breeze of good feelings

Full of good souls

Eternal and everlasting

Anything not soiled by the fire of death

A magical part of living things

A special privilege granted by God

Not just any old thing

Not buyable, priceless

The force that overpowers death

Heaven's grace

Naturally born

Not of artificial making

Renewed after death

A miracle in the process

Required for living things

Full of surprises, and...

The friendship we all share

I AM A WOLF

I am a wolf. I am different to most people around me and can sometimes be misunderstood but life moves on. I can be quiet and shy but once I know someone my personality really opens up.

I may not be the most talkative but I'll still listen. Whenever I see a new person I won't immediately go up to them but I am not insensitive I'm just shy.

My curiosity can sometimes get me in trouble with my family like a wolf gets in trouble with its pack. Exploring new places is what I like to do. Even if it's risky I love to see what's going on in the world around me. Just like a cornered wolf when I get in trouble I'll only fight if I need to.

Being creative is how I survive my life. Wolves' lives are hard but they move on. For me to move on is to create a new artwork. Even nature's beauty is like a form of art to me and I love to admire it.

I am unique. I am unlike anyone you will ever meet. Standing out is a good thing to me. Wolves may seem scary or weird but we are all beautiful and unique especially in God's eyes.
