Feelings Toward Vampires: I have no problems with vampires
of any sort. I think the only problem that occurs is when
certain vampires deny the existences of others out there
(Otherkin, for example), yet they expect you to believe in
them whole-heartedly. 
Feelings Toward Normal Humans: I cant stand humans that
think they are the true masters of all that they see and
seek out to destroy whatever they think is in their way. I
can only truly respect those that understand that they are
apart of a balance, and not the overlords.


Personal Therianthropy: Well, things have changed for
me since I first wrote this. At first, I played with
the idea of being what I am. It was cute, it was a
title. Now, it's more than that. It's who I am. 
I Awakened shortly after I had my firstborn son. It
was confusing to even think that something like that
could exist. Yes, I read about the history of
vampires, werewolves, and other things of the
paranormal, but deep inside of me lies a skeptic. 
I denied it. Considered it insane, until my husband
pointed out to me that what I was struggling with
trying to understand was the very thing that he was
keeping from me. Since then, he's been my constant
support. 
I very much unclear on what I was. When I say that, I
am referring to the aspect of my soul. To this day, I
am learning as I breathe. 
I am a firm believer in reincarnation. Not just for
what I feel and have experienced, but for the traces
of evidence I've found in books. I believe that death
and rebirth is simply a series of lessons that I have
to learn. The soul--as it learns these
lessons--inhabits different types of bodies.
Sometimes, the lesson learned makes such an impact
that it leaves an impression on the soul. I believe
that is what has happened in my case. 
I do not feel as if I am in the wrong body or want my
ultimate goal to be searching my entire life for a way
to shift into my "trueform". What I feel is
comfortable in my own skin. I try to balance the
aspects of my soul--my conflicting natures, who I am
with what I am--and maintain a harmony in it. I can do
nothing to change it, so I will not fight it. 
In the beginning, I was unsure of what I am supposed
to do or be, but now, I've learned that I can only be
myself, no matter how odd people may believe it to be.

The more I learn about myself--not just my Wereside,
but all of it--the more I can grow.

When I was younger, people have always called me
feline; my mother even said that my smile looked like
the Cat in the Hat's (creepy if nothing else, I know).
I considered it to be cute and nothing more than that.
My mannerisms were also likened to that of a feline,
but I never paid it much attention. Now that I look
back on it, I don't understand how I could have not
paid attention to it! The leopard is as much a part of
me as my arm or my head. The more I denied it, the
more it grew uneasy. That discord is what caused me
trouble with my emotions and with figuring out who I
was. I've accepted it since then--clearly--and that's
the best advice I can give anyone. It may be hard, but
if it's what you are, you have to be one with it.
