Just for the sake of the doing.<br /><br />I think I should have saved my responses for tomorrow--Chinese would have probably made more sense than my responses on this one lol.Stormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12613795542678253943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6393795333438979432.post-32741376128602967802013-03-12T15:18:26.437-06:002013-03-12T15:18:26.437-06:00st,

Not really a sense of pleasure just in the doing. If that makes any sense...<br /><br />I am awed by the fact that you can make him coffee and abstain.

Hopefully it will make some sense by the time I'm done!<br /><br />I think that submission is yielding to the will of another (An overly simplified statement, I admit). Service is doing things for that person. so, while it might be an act of submission, it is a concept that can exist without submission. Though I'm not sure that submission can exist without it...<br /><br />He does not submit to me, but he provides many services for me--support, dinner when I can't get to it, fixing shit, keeping me on track, Dominating me, etc.<br /><br />I am so not sure that I made any sense at all here...Let me know if I didn't, and I'll try to provide a more thought-out response!Stormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12613795542678253943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6393795333438979432.post-48644628844442154442013-03-12T14:36:15.441-06:002013-03-12T14:36:15.441-06:00I used to be very much anti-service.

But my attitude changed (gradually- not all at once) since becoming a slave. Now, I feel it is a privilege to serve him. If he makes his own tea, well that is ok, I don't get upset, but if he tells me to do it for him, then I am happier. ancilla_kssthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10968994155747861194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6393795333438979432.post-45834395562751617352013-03-12T11:07:52.598-06:002013-03-12T11:07:52.598-06:00I'm kinda like you - I'm not very service ...I'm kinda like you - I'm not very service minded. When I think of service, I think, "What will I get out of it?" Like, 'Why do I pick up his dirty socks (and everything else)?' So I don't have to see the room messy, so I don't have to do it later. 'Why do I make him coffee?' So I don't have to hear him bitch because I didn't. lol So is it really service if I'm getting something out of it?<br />s.t.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04798113123590131798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6393795333438979432.post-8143499869669913122013-03-12T10:20:18.747-06:002013-03-12T10:20:18.747-06:00Yay for a lightbulb moment lol

My grandmother was a maid in a large house and was always happy to serve. I think I've evolved away from her into something quite different.<br />Curious to know - how do you think service differs from submission?DelFontehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00008482549648272206noreply@blogger.com
