What to do, what to do? Pull out a clean sheet of paper. Draw a line down the middle. Pros on the left, cons on the right. Scribble, scribble, scribble furiously. Walk away. Run the sweeper, take out the garbage. Come back. Review list. Thats on both sides. Thats on both sides. You cant have the same thing on both sides of the list. Crumple the paper and throw it in the trash.
On the internet. Search here. Click, click, click. That one would make my family happy. Click, click, click. That one would please my friends. Click, click, click again. Heres one that would thrill him. Another clean piece of paper and drawing of lines. Scribble, scribble, scribble again. Walk away. Change the bed linens. Make lunch. Read list. No, no, no! This isnt working. Crumple the paper and throw it in the trash.
Immobilized by indecision. Is it time? Is it not? Do I? Dont I? There is no net. Well, yes there is, its just awfully close to the ground. Do I jump? Or do I stay safely on the ground? Can I fly? Do I have wings? Or am I risking it all for naught? Is it really a big drop? Or is that just an illusion created by my fear?
Would someone just tell me what to do? Tell me where to go? Show me where to look? Im just immobilized by indecision....

OK. I admit it! I spent too much time on ALT yesterday. Hey! Its my vacation! The car is in the shop, I didnt want to start the tasks ahead of me, so I took some time to play the game of looking at the comments of people.
All I can say to one party is THANK YOU!!! I didnt see it last summer when it happened, but the answer was right there for me. The thing Ive suspected for months is OBVIOUSLY true!
You really can learn some things that make you laugh, when you play this game!
*giggling as I think about what I saw... Whew, doggies!*

tis the season.....

Tis the season, as we all know. The time of year that we celebrate family, make resolutions, and generosity and love for our fellow man abounds. Merriment and holiday wishes are contagious. The flurry of parties, the glut of food and drink, and the whirlwind of shopping and gift giving seems to suck in even the most hardened Scrooge.
While basking in the warming glow of abundance, may I ask you to keep one small thing in mind? Food banks are open all year around, not just during this season. Womens shelters have open doors year round, not just during the cold. The Salvation Army provides, regardless of the time of year. Nursing homes have residents who receive no family visits 365 days a year.
If every single member of ALT donated just $1 per week or spent 1 hour per week in a charitable cause, we would make a difference in some ones life. I encourage all of you to choose ONE thing, and make a commitment to it for every single week of 2006. Many grocery stores have the scannable coupons for a local food bank. Why not pick one up every visit to the store? If you prefer to donate to the Salvation Army, why not make all the envelopes up now? (Remember, postage is increasing to $.39 a letter on January 8.)
The greatest gift any one can give is a part of yourself. Why not give a commitment today? Someone WILL thank you for it!

discipline versus punishment

When would it be considered discipline (behavior modification) rather than punishment (action taken due to inappropriate behavior)?
Have I misunderstood the definitions of each? Or is it another of those items that needs to be defined within the individual relationship?

Charles Schultz Philosophy

The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just read the e-mail straight through, and you'll get the point.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winner for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.
How did you do?
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
Easier?
The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care.
Pass this on to those people who have made a difference in your life.
"Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.
It's already tomorrow in Australia." (Charles Schultz)

Every once in a while, I will kick and scream.
Please understand that I need you to hold me.
Every once in a while, I will chafe against your lead.
Please understand that I need you to pull me back.
Every once in a while, I will question you and your motives.
Please understand that I need to hear your answers.
Every once in a while, I will test your patience.
Please understand that I need your reassurance.
Every once in a while, I will try to escape.
Please understand that I need to have you enclose me.
Every once in a while, I will push your buttons.
Please understand that I need to know you care.

If you have not already read Rusty's fantabulous posting, Responsibility of a Dominant, then I can only ask, what are you waiting for?
I don't care if you have 1 day or 10,000 days experience in this life style. I don't care if you are a dominant or a sub. I don't care if you think respect should be given or earned. I don't care if you're a sadist or a masochist. I don't care where you fall in any single spectrum of anything that touches on BDSM.
Please read this posting. This is a true Master sharing his knowledge.

an experience with a collar....
|

I knew you had blindfolded me for a reason. As I felt you place the collar around my neck, my breath caught. You quietly asked if I was ready for this. A soft, hesitant yes slipped from my lips. Your fingers quickly addressed the closure and then slowly smoothed the collar against my skin. As you stepped back, my hands raised to grab the leather, pulling it away from my neck. The symbol of ownership chafed, heavier than I imagined it could be. My anxiety began to rise. Too much! I struggled with my emotions, straining to relax. Your hands gently closed around my wrists and brought my arms back to my sides. Strong arms wrapped around me, holding me close until the unsettled feelings passed.
When you spoke to me again, there was a difference in your voice. It was heavier, harder, more demanding. I felt as though the visible sign of ownership was feeding you in some manner. There was no way for me to deny you. The leather around my neck compelled me to give you more, to respond in ways that surprised me, took away any thought of non-compliance. It was as though we were connected on a much deeper level, one that allowed you to delve into desires I had never recognized and pull forth reactions that surprised me. The intensity continued to build until I truly thought we both would burst. Your voice was growling, your hands hard, your demands insistent. All I could do was listen, accept, obey.
It was only a small, thin strip of leather. A very small thing that brought forth such an experience. An impression was created that night that has not yet left me. I hope it never does.
