10 The Six Primal humans needs.

“What governs our behaviors, our relationships and our destiny “.

I’m no great sage, nor do I claim to be some paragon of virtue. Actually, quite the contrary. I’m the type that the mothers warn their daughters about. I make no bones about it. I’m the kind of guy who will lead you down the path of sin and fornication, and best of all, make you like it. Yet, in contrast to that, I have dedicated the last few years of my life to the concept of Mastery where it pertains to Dominance and submission. I have always said that there are many paths up the mountain, and they all eventually lead to the same place. Part of my path is the understanding of human condition and why we do what it is that we do. I am not content to be a decent Dominant to a would-be submissive/slave. In the end, I must always strive to be better. If one seeks the path of being a Dominant (or Mistress, Sir, Domme, or Master), then by default, we are walking the path of leadership. Assuming this is true, for a dominant to be truly followed, he/she must ultimately lead by example. Sadly, as Shakespeare put it, “Ay, there’s the rub.” So many of us would rise to the challenge to lead, yet we are so blind in our understanding of self.

You can read the rest of this in the Human Relations & Life section.

It’s a bit long but you will find it very enlightening. Perhaps even see yourself in it.

recently i joined the Indiana BDSM mailing list and received your posting from that group.There are times when i wonder if i am truley part of WIITWD or just a bystander with a pocket full of dreams wishing to take part without the courage to step forward…
So this is not an experienced submissive that is answering your thoughts…just a vanilla kinky wannabe girl that was drawn in by your words.

my thoughts….first…revolve around the time you take to look inside yourself and find the real You. Amazing…this quality of self discovery is what draws me so to D/s and M/s and BDSM. Your brain is very attractive….grin.

Secondly….Your words bleed….quietly on the page. i empathize with You on the death of a relationship that held for You much promise. i would tell You that i pray for You but i’m not sure that would be a comfort to You. soft smile.

Regarding the first primal need….

Yes….i see this in me. We all strive for comfort…not physically….especially…but mentally. In my very limited exploration of bdsm i have found that bondage is scary powerful (hillbilly for wow) because it fulfills the deep need i hold for external locus of control……

be well
