He says it to me again
My slave
As those words sink in, my body feels the first shiver of delight
The lift of my spirit and the calm of belonging
His ownership
To me they are two of the most beautiful words that have ever been spoken to me
To me, these two powerful words carry a depth and wealth of meaning that only the two of us understand
My slave
No matter the context or intent, my heart swells with love and pride
Of being His
Each and every time I hear them I feel a calm unlike any other
I feel a pulling in my soul
He understands me and knows that those two words put me in my place
A reminder of who I am and who I have become
My slave
These two words are powerful
They keep me in the headspace that ensures I will be able to take anything for Him
The mindset that I can do anything
The light is now dark ... any fear is now peace
Like a trance
Where I am taken to places I never suspected I could go
Taking from me that part of my soul that stays hidden from all others
That belongs to Him
I breathe in and I feel the change inside of me
Floating
Calm and tranquility
Breathless pleasure of yielding
It washes over me and makes my soul anew
All I know, and all that I am is His
Complete happiness ... utter bliss
Soley, purely, and with complete release and relief
His evident pleasure as He speaks those two words to me shows me that He has carved out a special place for me
By His side
My slave
Yes Master .... Yours Always

Only for You ...

Your voice whispers low in my ear
Your breath hot on my skin
Heightens my senses
Stills me
Waiting in anticipation
My pulse races
Lost in Your power
Cornered by a primal desire
Burning
Needing
Wanting
Craving
The fury takes me by surprise
And I am lost within
Your storm
Absorbing it all
Shattered as all control is swept aside
You penetrate my soul
And I melt into You
Your protective arms
Enfold me
Your chest rises and falls
To the rhythm of my heart
I exist in this moment
Only for You
Always .... Yours

In the safety of your arms
The noises cease
The mayhem quiets
The world is still
The fears vanish
In the safety of your arms
All is peace
All is calm
All is right
The rage is quelled
The fire smoldered
The heart filled
Our souls spoke to each other
Quietly
In the safety of your arms
Where I belong
For awhile nothing else mattered
Perfect

Obstacles ....

In ancient times ... a king had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the king for not keeping the roads clear - but none did anything about getting the stone out of the way.
Then one day, a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. On approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining he finally succeeded.
As the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the king indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway.
That day, the peasant learned what many others never understood making him far wealthier than any other in the land.
The point being every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve ones condition. You have the power to move forward no matter what setback or obstacles block your path. You have the power to live true to your highest vision of how your life can be. You have the power to follow and reach your dreams.
We all have this power because we have the choice. In each moment we can choose, independent of all other factors what we think, what we say, and even how we will endure even the most uncertain and difficult situations. We can choose to be optimistic, we can choose to feel hopeful. We can choose to surround ourselves with those who love and care for us.
In the words of the well known Yoda ... Do or Do not, there is no try.

Transformation ...

Tremulous the first tendrils unfold ... the barren solitude breaking slowly ... like the dawn of time
One single shoot of timid frailty nurtured by love, kindness, patience and understanding
The warmth of acceptance ... inspiring the slow regeneration of growth ... the whispered encouragement .... barely audible to any but the most sensitive
The touches of tiny butterfly wings .... the traces of gentle fingers smoothing the way forward ... luxuriating in the gentle stir of remembered bliss
The subtle wash of feelings building solid blocks of need ... the first shaky step ... teetering into blossoming hope
The heart chooses who to love, and how
No matter how uncertain of the future I feel at the moment, I can still hear the voice of love
Face aglow with the realization that the end is not always forever merely in transition
Safe in trust ... carried by confidence ... soothed with that knowledge
There are struggles and hurdles along the way
Pain happens in life
For some more than others and we hope we don't experience it and try to not bring it upon those we care about
But when we feel pain, it is a sign ... an incandescent flare in our hearts telling us that we are alive
Alive and free to feel love, joy, sorrow, desire, acceptance, companionship, sickness, fear and hope
To protect ourselves from ever feeling these things is to not be alive
We must put ourselves at risk if we are to feel these things, both the good and bad
The chance for happiness requires risk ... the chance for love requires risk
Life requires risk
Transformation is possible at any time
A person can transform ... a situation can transform
Under the conditions of love, faith, and hope, transformation is quite possible
Never lose hope

I have always heard that we learn the most through our times of struggle. I never really put too much thought into that before but I am finding myself in deep contemplation of that concept as I sit here.
I fumble for words and spout a few sentences all the while wanting to cry for lack of ability to put into words how deeply I feel. I can still feel Him with every breath I take. He is ingrained in my thoughts, my actions ... I still want to reach out to Him when I wake, I still think of Him when I fall asleep and I still ache for Him and I will for a long time. No matter what Sir, I will always have nothing but the utmost respect for You. A part of my heart will always belong to You. I will always love you, too. 
Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for as long as they can, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never ever the same. Friendships are one of life's most treasured blessings and I truly value mine.
I think it's time to simply just be. I know with time my heart will calm down and I will have peace again. Until then I expect to struggle and will need to call upon my inner strength.
One thing at a time, one step at a time.

Lost

My journey in life has always been ... well like me. I probably came into the world with a map, a compass and the best of intentions but got distracted by lots of trivial things on the way so took a few wrong forks and let the chaos be my tour guide. I've always loved those unplanned surprises and had decided good, bad, indifferent ... I wouldn’t change too many things as they have made me who I am. Overall I've been okay with who I am, that is until now.
It’s like the dark has stolen the sun and I find myself lost. The music has stopped, the air is thick and there’s an eerie silence. Shadows scream and coil silently with the promise of monsters that eat and torture girls who have gotten themselves lost. I want to just skip along and catch up but I'm finding I'm almost frozen in place and I know the next few steps are crucial.
Everything has a sense of familiarity and I search my heart for answers. In my mind I know what to do. But today has been like a fog of navy and gray shadows it's making everything toxic. The flowers snarl at me from the garden, the path is now jagged, spitting up sharp stones that catch on my cold bare legs. The moon is hidden behind dark thunderous clouds mocking me with its lack of light. I feel completely helpless and utterly lost. The warms thoughts that had given me comfort hurt, killing me with their toxicity and right now I feel like an empty shell.
A thick wind whips around me, pulling at my clothes and hair, screaming in my ears. I am standing in the face of the elements, of those things greater than me and I realize I am no longer their equal. I feel vulnerable, alone and scared. There I am facing myself. The silence of my own screams deafen me and all I can feel is bursting pain, I am falling to trembling pieces. I cannot let it go, the wail inside for I’ll never stop choking on it so I keep my screams silent swallowing the roar down with force.
I know the way along my path and I've been so close and yet now I am stuck here paralyzed with fear ... the path where I should be ... where I want to be ... where I need to be ... where I will be. Just please don't give up on me.

Quiet Reflections ...

Do not undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others ... it is because we are different that each of us is special.
Do not let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past nor for the future ... by living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.
It is a fragile thread that binds us to each other ... do not be afraid to encounter risks, it is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
The quickest way to receive love is to give love ... the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly and take it for granted.
Do not dismiss your dreams ... to be without dreams is to be without hope ... to be without hope is to be without purpose.
Do not run through life so fast that you forget not only where you have been ... but also where you are going, where you are meant to be.
Knowing who and what we are and why we are here, is not something we have to earn by getting right, choosing perfectly, or trying harder.
Sometimes work is required, sometimes it hurts ... sometimes life overwhelms us and our vision of ourselves becomes a little blurry.
Growth is sometimes about joy and laughter ... growth is sometimes about pain and tears.
The truth is, none of us know how long we have here, being human means we are mortal.
Knowing this and being forced to face the impermanence of our reality and existence, we may be tempted to move away from loving deeply in order to protect ourselves and those we love from feeling loss.
But that would simply be fighting another aspect of the reality of being human, the reality of loving fiercely ... of appreciating deeply and so being attached to beauty, we experience with the people we love.
Being human means we are not detached ... we are deeply connected to and affected by life, so we risk.
Open your heart, offer it freely to those you love ... be there without question, without requirement, love them and allow them to love you.
Life is not a race ... but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
Do not give up when you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

When someone loves you, love them back unconditionally. Do it because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things. Let yourself fall in love, and set your sights high. Be thankful for them, never take people for granted ... for they truly do not stop loving you.
Sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and seem unfair, but in time and with reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart.
Each day, every single one of us has something to be grateful for. Big or small, the more we focus on what we have to be thankful for in our lives, the easier it will be to deal with the challenges and tests that come our way.
Have hope ... everything happens for a reason. I do not believe that things happen by chance or by good luck. Hope can be our lifeline when we need it, it bends, it twists, it sometimes hides, but rarely does it break. It sustains us when nothing else can and it gives us reason to continue and the courage to move ahead. Hope puts a smile on our face when the heart cannot manage. Hope puts our feet on the path when our eyes cannot see it. Hope moves us to act when our souls are confused of the direction. It can manage to bring light into the darkest of places.
Grow in self-worth and confidence ... for with it, you begin to strip away fear. Learn that it is truly in giving that we receive.
Oh .... and here's another one that I can't confirm just yet, "Dip and Dots make everyone smile." Thank you Sir

My Cage ...

I have been quiet. So much to say and yet no words to voice. It has been a time of solitude for me, and it has been a time to reflect. An unexamined life is not worth living. Sometimes I need to turn around and retrace my steps a little bit, during this process, I will find where I have departed from the path of happiness. In my world there is sometimes a need to crawl within my own cage, and curl up with my own thoughts and feelings. For me it is a time of growth, and a time to look at who I was, who I am, and who I strive to be.
Within my cage I can find comfort, and the freedom to feel and hurt. The freedom within the bars of my cage allow me to face all that I am ... the good, the bad, and the indifferent is seen from the safety of my cage of solitude. From the inside looking out I can see my faults, and I can see that I have room to grow. I can also see that there is always a need to learn.
Things are different now. But the love that I feel surpasses what I could begin to describe. It’s still strong and fills me with quiet wonder. It’s a bit like staring up at the night sky and trying to comprehend just how big it is out there. I am just a speck, incomprehensibly small ... I think that’s what it means to love someone. It's not always the fireworks or excitement, or grasping for security. Love is a profound understanding that there is something more important than ourselves. The magnitude overwhelms me and shakes me to my core. That stays with me. He is with me always.
Sometimes it is my struggle against the darkness that has become who is me. And those are my tears falling like soft light trying to wash the dark thoughts away. With light there is darkness ... one cannot exist without the other. To be secure there must be knowledge of what insecurity feels like. To be happy there must be sadness. I am thankful for the moments of peace.
I will find my words and I will become stronger, even if only with a whisper I find my voice.
