ORIGINAL: SlyStone quote:
personally, this slave has submitted, in a non-kinky fashion on several occasions. to help out folks she had no intimate or kinky relationship or family ties to(male and female) around the house or with other projects---without any expectation of anything---because that is how she was rasied and she had plenty of resources not to need to be "paid" for her help. Beth I am curious, when you say you have "submitted" to helping others, do you mean that you did so because you were told to, and submitted to your masters wishes, or is it that you equate any act of giving of yourself as a kind of submission? no, the times this slave was referencing were before Master was in her life. this slave submitted, as in made it known to these folks that she was their "slave" in the sense that whatever they wanted done, she would do, within her capabilities...not according to her personal preferences of activites during the prescribed time she had to offer. for example, a very nice lady ran the summer program at the local rural elementary school. she tried to enrich it with programs that would benefit the kids educationally, as well as fun activities. whatever she needed, is what this slave offered to do..painting faces, tutoring kids having trouble with math, cleaning up after everyone had gone home, going to town for supplies, refereeing games, etc. no strings attached, no monetary compensation expected. another example..a friend of a friend was having trouble keeping up with the housework, due to his disabilities. this slave would go over once a week, clean the kitchen and the bathroom and whatever other chores he was unable to do. he couldn't afford to pay her...and it needed doing, so she offered...free of charge. it isn't just soup kitchens and nursing homes that need volunteers...a lot of times there are folks/opportunites in your own neighborhood that could use a helping hand...and you don't know until you offer---no strings attached. it has been this slave's experience that most folks won't take you up on it...or insist on giving you something in return...even if it is a poundcake. blame it on pride or suspicion of ulterior motives or whatever. giving of one's self within parameters that one determines all on one's own, this slave doesn't equate to submission ~ offering one's self and one's talents for another to use as they see fit, according to their parameters...or not...is what this slave equates to submission.
