Photo from BlueSky…Artist unknown to me.

I am rather enamored with submissives at the moment.  Well, I’ve always been and always will be, duh.  It’s more than usual, though.  For reasons I am not at liberty to divulge at this time, I won’t give details, but suffice it to say I am back in a dynamic once more.  It feels very, very good.

When I saw the above photo, I knew it fit well with some thoughts I’ve been having about the enormous contribution. Foundation? I’m not sure what to call it. There just wouldn’t be a D/s without the ‘s.’  The letter is in lowercase, but it is so very strong, so very powerful, and upholds so much for the Doms in the world that it can go unnoticed or unthanked.

Thank you.

Thank you for nurturing behind the scenes, sometimes very discreetly, depending on the fragility of the Dom ego. Thanks for taking more than you should sometimes because we had a bad day, and you’re willing to absorb it because you take your duty very seriously. Thank you for the uncomfortable things you allow and amazingly often enjoy that please us.

Your arms uphold a whole lot, even from your knees.  The thing is, you already know this is true, but stay relatively quiet about it.  I wish to toot your horn for you.  I just mean the proverbial instrument, too.  There is no greater joy than having a well-trained submissive who knows how to respect her dom as he respects her.  No. Greater. Joy.

I’ll end this Hallmark-sounding thing by paraphrasing the song from Gigi.

Thank heavens for little subs, for little subs get more submissive every day,

Thank heavens for them all, no matter where, no matter who,

Without them what would little doms do?

With love, respect, and affection,

Master Grey
