The hunting part is foreign to me -- something that I'd never think about nor truly understand, but you've spun gold here, and I appreciate it.

This is beautiful, Nia. I received a hunting rifle years ago determined that, if I am going to eat meat, I need to kill it myself. I've never aimed it at a living thing. Now as I get older, and my friends who do hunt tell crazy stories every year of growing crowds at the places they hunt, I begin to think I never will. It is just another of the deep sadnesses thrown onto the heap of ones I carry around.

Also, thank you for not posting the obligatory, "Here is me with my dead animal" photo. I hate those.
