&lt;i&gt; Yes. I think Master and I need to find that special little phrase, word or touch that will make me plummet back into submission. I am looking forward to it's discovery. &lt;/i&gt;

&lt;b&gt; beth &lt;/b&gt;

&lt;i&gt; I suppose I was being extreme when I said perhaps I needed to be broken lol. But yes, my submission is a gift to be given and Master views it as such. One of the reasons I adore him so much. &lt;/i&gt;

		<description>I really don't think it's a matter of needing to be 'broken.' It's quite natural -- as far as I know from my own experience and that of others, who have shared with me, or the internets -- to have different aspects of our selves take the ascendent position, depending on circumstances. As a mother, for example, well ... I'm simply *not* my submissive self when I'm mothering them. Put me in the company of an intimate partner, on the other hand, and my innate submissiveness simply washes over me. Actually, that happens a lot, even in non-intimate interactions with various men whom I know, come into regular contact with etc. 

I tend to view submissiveness as a gift to be given, or withheld, from me to the right man: it isn't a matter of him needing to subdue me. But of course, that's me. I'm not trying to give unsolicited advice, merely clumsily trying to share how it is for me.</description>

		<description>I can see where the switch is very difficult. But your dominance in your field may be part of your need to submit. One may feed the other. But hopefully the switch will come easier as time goes by.

&lt;i&gt; I enjoy the delurking. I appreciate all words and comments. I could use the feedback. I am usually home before he is. His journal has started putting submissive routine back into my life. There are instructions on how I should be dressed and how I should be upon his arrival. Last night he slowly taught me some renewal lessons in submission. &lt;/i&gt;

&lt;b&gt; oatmeal girl &lt;/b&gt;

&lt;i&gt;*smiles* I guess we are still on the path of discovery &lt;/i&gt;

&lt;b&gt; essence &lt;/b&gt;

&lt;i&gt; As our lives mold and change we will need to find ways of connecting to our D/s nature when it is not physically possible. &lt;/i&gt;

&lt;b&gt; liras &lt;/b&gt;

&lt;i&gt; I don't think I'll ever go to far that I can't get back. Master is kind and he knows how take me back. I can't imagine my life without him or the things we share. This is my home. &lt;/i&gt;

		<description>Yes, it can he hard. It often seems that once one goes so far, there is no coming back. 

But you will come back. Your feet know they way too well for you to b truly lost.</description>

		<description>This is something i have had a hard time dealing with lately.  i have children, and they look to me as Daddy has only been in their life a short time, plus i have started my own business as well to make the switch sometimes is very difficult for me.

i like His fawn's method but i wouldn't be able to do that on days my children are home.  lol  He does have His way of reminding me of my place, sometimes He'll just say "Whose girl?"  i alway get quiet then and softly say "Daddy's girl or Your girl."  Sometimes He just gives me that look of... remember who I am.  

As oatmeal girl says it's part of the voyage of discovery... i don't think it ever really ends.

my best always

		<description>one of the many psychological fascinations i've found in D/s is how each side of the equation finds a relief from stress (among other things) through very different paths. the philosopher finds strength in having power over me - probably the one area of his life that he can more-or-less control. i find comfort in being able to give up control.

but often he'll call me and i'll be all wired and babbling and nowhere near sounding submissive. and as we haven't seen each for over 3 months, and have a long wait ahead of us, he did have to come up with non-physical methods. so it was just a question of observation. for example, if he asks "what are you wearing, kitten?" he can hear my voice change and know i'm settling into subspace. it's that easy.

last january i took him to a music &#38; dance festival - a very new experience for him. at one point, he was holding my hand and then suddenly pressed his nail into my palm. he saw it on my face - i was suddenly in a different place.

once he discovers the right triggers, it won't be a question of "embracing" your submission. you'll suddenly be there, and it will feel so good to be back. it's all part of the voyage of discovery. just try not to get seasick!</description>

		<description>Hello mina,

I'm delurking once more to comment..after reading your blog I knew I had to...

I too am a very busy career woman with many people counting on me  I do relish that part of my life and like you I use to have a difficult time of shuting it off to sink back into my submission..

Until I tried this.. Master is in his chair awaiting my return,as I enter the house closing the door behide me..this one strips down to nothing leaving the world at the door..then I drop to my knees making my way to Master's feet...as I crawl  naked the day fades away as my focus once again becomes Master..it come naturally now without bumps.. 
Perhaps if you come up with something like this it might help you?

Good Luck
His fawn</description>
