"When you open your mind and hands and heart to the knowing of a thing, there is no room in you for fear"

I am going to start filtering some of my more private musings. Since blogger does not have a tool for that, you will need to visit my Live Journal and ask to be friended there. I will continue to post Daily Gratitude and other subjects here.
There is also a FAQ for my Journal at the same link.

One of my favorite blogs: Bleu's Journal . the October 21st entry.
I want to take away everything I've learned about BDSM, all the crap that I piled on to that experience. I want to remove my philosophies and structures that seem only to be choking me. I've gotten so wrapped up in my vision and my idea of myself and what a relationship should look like, that it feels like a cheap imitation of things that used to be real. I want to stop talking about things, stop struggling with it and just go back to simply being.
and
I want to go back to where there is a man who has an idea in his head of what he wants a girl to be...and a girl who is set up by her fucked-up past to have a consuming drive to fulfill that vision, to be what he wants. Where there is no such thing as BDSM and there isn't any prescribed way I should act or think. And there is no public scene. And there aren't a lot of other people surrounding us trying making some type of mini-community. And there is no such things as "houses" and discussions about what formality or training or structure is..because it just IS, without the constant navel gazing.
though with a woman and a boi not a man and a girl :)
and
I came to the harsh realization that to end a relationship with someone because he wanted to drop the structure and drop my internal structure...when everything would have looked the same, felt the same, BEEN the same--is nothing but me getting wrapped up in ideas and words and not *being*.
My boi and I have discussed this intellectualizing of M/s. We were just talking about it yesterday. We do not want to talk things to death, or even to a coma. We would much rather be living our life and making our dynamic work than doing post-scene deconstruction or spending hours debating definitions and philosophies on e-mail lists or at events. We're in this to relate to each other and to live life together, not to talk about it.
