realization and some scattered thoughts

Sorry in advance, this is going to be a bit of a ramble but if you can bear with me, I'd like to get a convo going with someone. I'm starting to come to a realization of what my connection to being canine means, specifically a wolf (but maybe a domestic dog too? or more? idk.) 

For a long time now I've considered myself part of the furry community but I'm very familiar with therians, my partner is one themself. I've spent a lot of time learning and thinking on it. I guess I never really thought I could be one, because I didn't think I fit into what it meant to "be a therian" 

ever since I've been with my current partner tbh, I've felt free to completely be myself to the point I've started acting on more of my canine impulses. I also got a set of these paws from a convention with fur that's brown with black tips and when I wear them it just feels so right and it's made me sad sometimes to think about how I can't always have them.

the more I think on it, the more I realize that thing point towards "being therian" and I've been wanting to seek out more community so...not sure what I'm trying to really get at here, maybe just some kind of reassurance? someone to talk to? idk but really just needed to get some of these thoughts out so thank you if you took the time to read any of this🐾
