Okay, I know that this entry is going to offend some people, but I frankly don’t care. Heck even that picture is offensive (and if you have a problem with blood or get really sick by looking at death or are squeamish, then I recommend you don’t look at it). Personally, it gets me enraged, but it’s to get a point across. I’m sure you can all guess what that point is. Number one, it’s better to be insulted than dead. Number two, I don’t know you and it’s not my job to be nice to everyone just because they want to accomplish this goal. Not everyone will end up doing this and no one can deny that.
Why is it so many young people these days (younger and younger it seems) are coming here and to the therian community begging to become a weresomething? Further more, why is it that almost no one says anything to discourage such a young person as 10-14 from accomplishing this goal? As wolves, aren’t we supposed to love and protect our young as opposed to letting them try and run full tilt into what will almost certainly ruin their life?
Yes, I get that this goal is awesome and I was one of those ten-year-olds trying to do this. Just because you want to do something and think you can accomplish it, doesn’t mean you should. I also wanted to run away and live in the wild from age 10-16 because I just couldn’t take living in the stuffy atmosphere of a rural town. I just had to have it wilder, even made it out the door once. All of you reading this can look at that fact and think how stupid and naive I was back then. I could have gotten killed. I could have ruined my life. I would have been irreversibly harming those who cared about me by leaving them. Anyone drawing any parallels here?
I believe that there’s a reason why I didn’t discover anything real or promising about this goal before I was 17-18. I wasn’t meant to because I couldn’t handle it. I’m pretty sure I can say that no other human that young can either.
When the kids who want to become mermaids come here asking for spells on shapeshifting, a lot of you guys tell them to grow up and leave those of us working this goal alone. Why is it when other kids come here asking for the same things and acting in the same exact way, they are welcomed and encouraged? There is no difference between an eleven-year-old who wants to be a werewolf and an eleven-year-old who wants to be a mermaid. Even us eighteen-year-olds could learn some more about life (sarcasm). Heck, even a thirty-year-old still has a thing or two to learn.
My point is that this is not a game. Nor is it something to be stabbed at by those who are going to change their minds later on. Once you achieve this goal, it’s going to be impossible to change your mind. Yeah, I know what some of you might be thinking: If you can get there, then you can get back. Sorry, but it doesn’t work that way. Once you’ve accepted another animal’s soul into your own, once you’ve bonded with that other being you can’t just back out and say “Nevermind, sorry…get out.” If you thought kicking an annoying roommate out was bad…><
If I come off as a jerk, then deal with it. I’m not going to stop giving you my unfiltered opinion and advice just because it makes you feel bad (starts playing the world’s saddest song on the world’s smallest violin). If you can’t deal with me, then you certainly aren’t going to be able to deal with the life you’re trying to get into. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, “The walls are there to give you the opportunity to prove how badly you want something.”
