In almost every submissive/slave’s blog i have seen a post about this very subject. I never thought i would write the same in my blog but its a very important part of submission… The reality as compared to the glamorised leather wearing whip toting anjelina jolie wannabie version of submission. ( Mistress loves that term sooo much lol).
Submission is about sacrifice, and surrender. Your life is no longer your own, you belong totally to someone else. There is not one part of you left that belongs to you. If you have tasks to perform, whatever they are you cannot just not do them because you are busy.. You have to find a way to get them done. You put someone else before yourself at all times. You live to make another happy.
I’ve seen so many wannabies who think they can do this cave under the reality of it. Its not some easy picnic. No relationship is. Even i find it hard at times. But i carry on because i get true fulfillment out of service, even the hard times.
No 24/7 slaves life is always entrenched in obvious submission. You don’t spend your life in a gilded cage wearing silks looking pretty waiting to be used, or whipped or flogged or ordered around. Even the most yielding slave needs her( or his) own mind too. Unfortunately mundanity gets in the way. Trust me i would love to live in a gilded cage like that. Even the reality of that would be some ugly square cage, the kind you put dogs into when they are being obediance trained, or when they are sick. See where reality kicks in there?
I think people forget the responsibility true submission has. You are entrusted with, essentially, your Dominants life. You become their confidant, their rock.. You become privy to the most sensitive information, you do their groceries, you care for them when they are sick, for some slaves, tend to budgets and bills and cleaning and relaxation. Of course to get to this point in a relationship takes time so it does not apply to those new to a relationship but for those that have been in it for a while.. Sure it counts.. On top of that you have to care for your own , not only because because you are owned and therefore need to take care of yourself and risk no harm to your owners property but because if you don’t you cannot have gained the maturity to look after your own life.
I think those wannabies i mentioned before can’t handle both. Maybe i’m so good at things like this because i have a daughter.. I know what it is like and readily have given that sacrifice before. In different ways yes but there are comparisons with some things that can be drawn. A mother sacrifices for their child, a mother cares for a child, a mother puts everything they are into their child much like a slave gives there all for a Dominant . ( For those that may be unclear i am not calling Dominants children… (gods, imagine how sore my poor ass would be if i was)
It gets even harder when there is more than one slave involved, and serving a Dominant. Because you work with each other.. yes in theory it should halve the load right? ( Not that it is perceived as a load, its perceived and is at least to me a joy to serve) But then everyone has some failing, some little thing that grates or annoys or just simply , they can’t fulfill in the Dominant. Slaves are humans, not automatons, they can’t be perfect. Then it leaves the other slave feeling like they have to pick up the slack so to speak. Its just the way a true slave thinks and works.
Sometimes, just sometimes, a slave can be aroused, or feeling upset or need something and the Dominant wants/needs something else. The slave has to respect and tend to their Dominants needs putting their own aside. That can be frustrating sometimes too.
A good slave knows this. The really good slaves, the perfect slaves, also know that Dominants feel like this too. A good slave knows that an Owner cannot 24/7 live life out in a play scene. They are always in control yes but sometimes they just need companionship, someone to chat too, or watch tv with or vent at or just *shock horror* have a nice , gentle mostly vanilla moment. Dominants get burned out sometimes. It takes a lot of energy to be in control all the time and a good slave can recognise this and back off. Dominants with burnout can find a slaves nature needy or clingy or sometimes just a little creepy. You have to find a balance.. And sometimes .. you know.. slaves can miss that. Dominants don’t always want to order their slaves into deviant and kinky ( i love the word deviant.. i don’t use it enough) sexual acts and tie them up in a series of intricate knotwork that takes about 2 hours to complete.. yay shibari. A good slave makes the Dominants life easier, and lessen the energy that is needed to do all of this. Because trust me, all i mentioned above.. can be turned around and applied to a Dominants life. Its really very easy if you are a dedicated loving slave to remember that. I don’t know why more slaves can’t do this. So many just don’t seem to get it.They are selfish and expect the Dominant to do all the work.
I get frustrated sometimes. I recognise burn out in Mistress sometimes.. I feel that responsibility and that sacrifice more deeply at times than others. I put Mistress first in all things and i tend to myself so that i am looking after Mistress’s property. I can let my slave needs overwhelm noticing burnout and i get clingy, i am like most women overemotional at times. But i LOVE serving Mistress, i am exactly where i want my life to be, apart from the 3000 something miles between Mistress and i. And yet despite that distance, i seem to be the only one capable of understanding Mistress completly..
Speaks volumes right.
I want Mistress, need Mistress with every fiber of my being. I miss Her and crave Her and want Her happiness all the time. It never stops. I dream about Her, i fantasise about Her. I love Her and though i sometimes get some of the frustrations mentioned in this blog.. She is like oxygen to me, She’s like chocolate and pretty underwear and my PC to me.. Essential.
