My Life as a Lioness - E-book - ePub

The story starts with the introduction of a female lion, Bahty, who is guided by her feelings, and the lion pride does not accept this behaviour. Rather than conforming to the culture of the pride, Bahty accepts that she has to leave the pride to follow her intuition. Initially, Bahty is very upset about the non-acceptance and blames everything that comes in her way. However, on her journey of learning, she meets various other animals.
Some of these meetings do not go well for these animals, but all of these animals provide small pieces of learning for Bahty, which eventually leads Bahty to accept that the world is not wrong, it is her way of living that has caused her the troubles she has. We see Bahty going from a phase of anger with the world to a phase of acceptance of her destiny. Bahty learns to accept who she is, and more importantly, she learns to accept the foibles of other animals.
Towards the end, Bahty becomes wise and finds that lions and even other animals come to her for advice.
