“But you are chasing after your power. And you shouldn’t.” “I have to connect to nature.” I shook my head and she smiled. “You are chasing your tail.” “What?” I didn’t know what she was saying. “Sit. Listen.” We settled back on the ground. “Your power is a part of your very essence. You are essentially chasing your hand with the other hand.” I felt my face drop, and she smiled. “What happens when you chase something?” “You catch it?” “When a wolf feels threatened, it runs.” She patted my head. “Close your eyes.” I settled and listened to her voice. “The easiest way to coax out a wolf is to sit quietly and wait for it to come to you and then catch it off guard.”
