"Wild Devotion"

Friday, January 14, 2011
"So what is the Wild Woman? Where is she present? Where can you feel her, where can you find her?



She walks the deserts, woods, oceans, cities, in the barrios, and in castles. She lives among queens, among campesinas, in the boardroom, in the factory, in the prison, in the mountain of solitude.



She lives in the ghetto, at the university, in the streets.



She leaves footprints for us to try for size. She leaves footprints wherever there is one woman who is fertile soil."

-Clarissa Pinkola Estes, "Women Who Run With the Wolves".

1. Eat
2. Rest
3. Rove in between
4. Render loyalty
5. Love the children
6. Cavil in the moonlight
7. Tune your ears
8. Attend to the bones
9. Make love
