Thank you to those who left Me notes of support in regards to My post on the other thread. This is for all of you.

“What is home? My favorite definition is "a safe place," a place where one is free from attack, a place where one experiences secure relationships and affirmation. It's a place where people share and understand each other. Its relationships are nurturing. The people in it do not need to be perfect; instead, they need to be honest, loving, supportive, recognizing a common humanity that makes all of us vulnerable.”

A riding crop and a blindfold doesn't make it BDSM. There is a big difference between being kinky and being in the scene. It's not a sexual thing to me, it's a very spiritual thing.
~ DominaBlue.

BDSM goes far beyond what is seen and it grasps the spirit nature by the heart and brings me to other worlds beyond description. Love and ecstasy are brought about in the realization the pain is truly about them caring so deeply for me.

It does not serve you or the world for you to behave as if you are powerless. It is an insult to the Creator of your life, in whose image and likeness you were created. You have gifts. You have the opportunity to share words of compassion, to express feelings of love, to know the joys of sharing and to experience the wonderment of seeing a life grow before your eyes. That is powerful! You are powerful! Now, why don't you try acting like it?

We can only learn and advance with contradictions. The faithful inside should meet the doubtful. The doubtful should meet the faithful. Human slowly advances and becomes mature when he accepts his contradictions.

Life Is Like A Box Of Chocolates...You Never Know What You Are Going To Get. -Forrest Gump

MissItalianDiva · 05-09-2013, 03:22 PM

We are always looking for the perfect relationship. The goal is to find that perfect someone who will make our lives a better place to be. But no one can give us what we don't already have. We have to ask ourselves, "Am I doing my best, giving my all, being the best I can be to myself?" When we can pass the test of self-acceptance, the perfect someone who will compliment all that we already are will walk right through the door.

~~Iyanla Vanzant

“Life is filled with unanswered questions, but it is the courage to seek those answers that continues to give meaning to life. You can spend your life wallowing in despair, wondering why you were the one who was led towards the road strewn with pain, or you can be grateful that you are strong enough to survive it.”
~ J.D. Stroube
