The Powerless Dominant

No matter the issue a dominant and their loved one face, feeling powerless is a struggle.

Someone very special recently referred to me as a Valkyrie, who has bravely charged a path to a future he had only dreamed of.

But, what is a Valkyrie, to do when her hands are bound?  Of course we struggle.

This has been one of my major life's lessons this year.

As good dominants or Masters, we've trained ourselves to observe, listen, care for, guide, nourish, and ask questions of our loved ones and partners to educate ourselves in regard to their needs, wants, and experiences.

We communicate.

We support unconditionally.

We want to heal what ails and make it all better.

We fix problems.

We nurture and soothe.

We touch.

We transcend.

We work magic with both flesh and spirit.

But we can't do these things alone and we can't force someone to share in a certain solution if they are not yet ready or willing. Because as a dominant/Master with integrity we don't "force' people and we respect boundaries.

Sometimes all we can do is say, "I'm here and I care", and while that might be all that's needed or wanted at the time, it just never feels like enough, does it?
