There are lots of definitions of the word "master"...let me share a few with you, OP. 1-a man who rules others or has control, authority, or power over something (noun) 2-something regarded as having control, power (noun) 3-to become master of; control, conquer (verb) 4-a title: a) a boy regarded as too young to be addressed as Mr. b) a man who heads some institution, group, activity, or place c) in Scotland, the heir apparent of a viscount or baron (Sorry, dreams of men in kilts...sigh ) But my favorite is... 5- a person very skilled and able in some work, profession, science, etc.; expert; specif., a) a highly skilled workman or craftsman qualified to follow his or her trade independently and, usually, to supervise the work of others b) an artist regarded as great c) a person recognized as having achieved the highest degree of skill Now...as to your question, OP, of whether or not you have complete authority of your slave I would have to say that if you need to ask such a question maybe it's time to go back to the beginning and learn to master yourself and work on having complete authority of your own life before you consider taking on the responsibility of another person's care and well-being. Just my opinion, though.[;)]
