seeking strength


Lionesses: trying to fill the empty space left by draining life experiences and relationships. Seeking some kind of power source, to light the internal fire and overcome the sense of helplessness and inadequacy that comes from long-term emotional neglect.

Words that come to mind:
strength
serenity
peace
power
solitary
social
fluid
grace
Something about these feels like the mother(s?) I've always longed for. (Not sure why, but I've always preferred to surround myself with images of animals and nature rather than people...they feel, maybe, more comforting? Safer?)
