Status: offline 		This is my philosophy on what a good Dom should be............

A Dominant is a Ruler, but never a
  Tyrant.
But to rule requires
  understanding and
  understanding requires humility.

A Dominant has Pride, but never
   Arrogance.
But pride requires dignity and
 dignity requires humility.

A Dominant commands Respect,
   but never Fear.
But respect requires serenity and
serenity requires humility.

A Dominant employs Strength, but
   never Force.
But strength requires knowledge
and knowledge requires humility.

A Dominant criticizes, but never
   derides.
 But criticism requires insight and
insight requires humility.

A Dominant receives, but never
   takes.
But receiving requires giving and
giving requires humility.

A Dominant completes, but never
   tries to alter.
But to complete one must be able
to see what is there, not what is
missing and THIS most of all
requires humility.

Of course there are several other qualities required of a good Dom, but ...
              Agree or Disagree??????????????

Status: offline 		I can't claim to be a poet ,so the answer would be no. It did however embody what I have always believed and live by.   Do I get a brownie point for being honest?

Hi Tempting ...... yes, actually, I have thought about going to see Mr. Trebeck lol...I hold my own as I watch at home... but to be honest, I had to look up Togneri's name. I had read it before, but I didn't remember exactly who it was.

This is my philosophy on what a good Dom should be

But not a good sub?  Or person?

quote:

  Arrogance.
But pride requires dignity and
dignity requires humility.

I happen to like a bit of arrogance.

And those are pretty words, but why does pride require dignity?  And why does dignity require humility?  I don't think they necessarily follow.

This is a poem- it's not meant to be an actual literal life philosphy.  Enjoy it for the romantic flowery feelings you get from it- but I'd shudder to think people try and use it in reality as a checklist sort of thing.
