Guest Post:
The idea for the shift series began with the question; If you could be anything, what would you want to be? My answer wasn’t simple, because I couldn’t choose. I equally wanted to be a wolf, a mermaid, and a pegasus, all for different reasons. I desired to be a wolf, because I liked the idea of belonging to a pack. I have a very protective nature inside me; just like a wolf defends their pack members. I wanted to be a mermaid to have the freedom the ocean offers. This I decided when I went on my first cruise. Having been out at open sea, made this yearning stronger. I dreamed of what it would be like to have a tail and escape the land for the aquatic world. Even in the pool while I swam I would wish that I could hold my breath indefinitely, and see without hideous goggles strapped to my head. I also I longed to be a pegasus. Now this form is obvious, because of my lifestyle. I train horses. While I ride I feel connected to the horse, like one creature. The only thing that could make horses better are a pair of long feathery wings. I often close my eyes while out on a ride, and I imagine we are flying high above the clouds. Not only that, but the obstacles, the hills, and the rivers that I have crossed while on horseback make me enjoy life, and the beauty within it. I had often dreamed that I could be one of these three creatures. When my nightmares came, like they so frequently did, I would become one of the three creatures to save the life of the ones I love. Losing a loved one has always been a deep fear of mine, and it’s no surprise that it is Callisto’s fear as well.
