Examining Submission Journaling Exercise - Day 23

Is there anything about submission (yours or what you see in others) that you question, dislike or repels you? Was there a time you questioned or were resistant to your own submissive feelings?

I won't answer to whether there are things in the submission of others that I question, dislike or find repellent.  This is because I believe that we are all served by different things. What serves me does not necessarily serve others, and what serves them does not necessarily serve me. It is not my place to question anyone else's submission. It is my job to be the best me that I can be, to be true to myself and to my Daddy.

Are there things that would not work for me? Certainly, and most of them revolve around humiliation. And that is because of my childhood. But I acknowledge that that particular dynamic does work for some. From a strictly play point of view, we're pretty tame, little rope, lots of spanking, and I guess what some would call submission 'exercises' - which is such a cold term. He will ask me to do things for him, which might be outside of my comfort zone to stretch me. These are never difficult, objectionable things which would stretch not my limits but my sensibilities. Daddy has complete respect for my sensibilities and my do-not-go-there places. The things he asks me to do more fun, playful things. They reinforce my obedience, my submission, and actually not only strengthen my submission, but my own feelings of femininity.

The only thing I have ever really questioned about my submission is if there was a place for me to be who I was in this world.

  1. Today, right now...it's the dependency in all of it. It's not bad in itself, just in my head a little bit.

    1. Susie, that's one of the things I enjoy most. I think because I've never experienced it before. Lots of people don't have honor, when they say faithful, when they say forever, when they say I will - they don't. Ward does. It amazes me, and sometimes I have to fight LiV (Little Voice) over the fact that I can depend on him.

  2. Am I submitting to the right person? and that's a BIG one.

    1. Only you can answer that,my friend. It should be a pull deep inside, it should be magnetic. I think this deserves a whole thread, so that you can get varied opinions. So I'm heading there now.
