AI art by Me

Going to give away a little bit about myself but I don’t mind. I have gone through some major life transitions in the past two years. My career suddenly became retirement earlier than I’d envisioned. I went through a separation from my partner which has recently led to going our separate ways. This ultimately led to my transition I am in now which will be moving to a new place to live.

I have a nice place to go and “sealed the deal” on it today so it’s reserved for me. I even have an address now. No, I’m not going to share THAT much! I am feeling pretty secure about it all and what the future may bring. This leads me to my topic: Anchors.

While I was not so secure about a lot of this, I had a deep conversation with a very close friend and discussed anchors in life. I said I felt I was losing all of my anchors and being buffeted (not the good kind with food) about everywhere.

I have since then and especially today realized something I knew a long time ago but had forgotten. The strongest anchor a person can have is themselves. I am my own anchor. Already, I have found others that also help to moor me in place, but, ultimately, I am the one who decides where I will be. This also refers to my article on making my own reality.

At an early age and for various reasons, I had decided my life would be a solitary one. I chose my major based on this fact. If I was going to be on my own then I would do so on my own terms. Life happened and I changed my major to something more family-friendly.

Friends have been asking me if I will be okay on my own. My realization or newly remembered realization is I’ve always been fine on my own. So many people I know and you know don’t like themselves very much or can’t stand to be alone because they don’t get along with themselves

I love me…well…95% of the time. I think that’s a good percentage.

What does this have to do with Dom Thoughts? Simple. As a dom, a man needs to be firmly embedded in his own securities before he can responsibly take on the security of a submissive. There’s a book that is very popular among sweet vanilla brides-to-be called, “The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands” by Dr. Laura of radio talk show fame,

I’ve seen it given and had my partner give it to many other brides-to-be at bridal showers. It used to bug the hell out of me how it sounded rather degrading to me, but my partner urged me to read it before condemning it. I did and found it’s actually pretty good…to a point. It teaches the woman how to, basically, be a submissive yet supportive wife/partner. It’s sort of a “How to Top from The Bottom Silently” approach. It sadly falls short on good enough references to s-e-x, but it almost go there.

I mention it because I’ve been tempted and still am to write my version of this. I’d called it, “The Proper Care and Feeding of a Submissive Wife.” There are SOOOO many men who have no idea what to do with a submissive woman as their wife which leads to a great deal of frustration on her part as the wagon has no driver so it runs off the road.

So the AI art I created and posted her is to symbolize I am my own, strong anchor, but I do get support from some lovely mermaids I know.
