Journal challenge 4: what does being a Dominant/submissive/Switch mean to Y/you? please list 5 things. Due Monday 10/07
-
Being Dominant represents many meanings for me:
1. Leader - The responsibility to guide down a path that will benefit not just submissive but for the Dominant too where both go down the path together as one journey.
2. Caregiver - it is important to offer support and nurture to help submissive be a great version of themselves. A Dominant should not do a total makeover a submissive but enhance and improve on the qualities and help their submissive see when certain choices may not be a wise one.
3. Sounding board - sometimes nothing needs extra done for your submissive but a willing and purposeful listener with a simple hug of support
4. Role model - Try to avoid the "Do as I say, not as I do" phrase. It is important to follow the same care, nurture, and advice you would dispense to or may mandate for your submissive. It can cause a contradictory emotional struggle for your submissive
5. Mutuality - Remember, it is not about you. It is about your submissive too. It takes both to be honest, trustworthy, and open communication to allow the relationship to deepen and bloom despite any turmoil that may enter the relationship. This foundation will aide in enduring rough times and appreciate the survival after it to enjoy the fantastic times.

1 balance:
Submitting brings balance to my life. It centers my mind and focus.
2 peace:
Submitting brings peace to my mind. Knowing that my responsibility to please my Dominant(s) comes first and foremost helps quell the people pleasing mode that is within me.
3 safety:
I feel safe when I submit known that I have a very strong person(s) that not only care but are proud to own me.
4 Honor:
When I submit I try to be the best person I can be and bring honor to myself but more importantly to my Dominant(s)
5 Trust
To totally trust my Dominant(s) just strengths the previously mentioned above. A deep trust with love that knows no bounds and continually grows each day, there is nothing sweeter than submitting to the right one(s)
