QUOTE : Orion never appreciated the wild places for what they are. Wild things need to be left free to preserve what makes them special. <br />He saw everything in the world around him as a trophy to collect. As something to possess. Even me. I am wild, untamed, unattached, unfettered. To love me is to appreciate that. And I am fortunate indeed to have many who love me. <br />Sometimes, to best tell your own story, you need it to be told by another. <br />I am the protector of women and the friend of young girls. The helper of childbirth, she who soothes. I am the caretaker of the wild places, the mountains, marshes, the pastures and wetlands. <br /><br />I am Artemis, goddess of the wild hunt.
