I have felt the isolation (from certain others) and think it seems to increase as I get older. I'm there with them, but I can't be truly myself with many of them (co-workers, neighbors) even though I do like them, so there is a distance or barrier there. I feel a nameless longing for a tribe of my own. I found comfort in re-reading Women Who Run With the Wolves, and re-affirming that my wild spirit is alive and well, even though I'm rather a chameleon in society! I just surfed in and discovered your interesting site. There are lots of ravens in the rural northern area where I live. Our woodland is like a sanctuary.
