Past Times

i have taken up webset designing... not unusual you may say and most definitely it would seem, not unusual for people of a submissive nature as in my travels to see what is about i have found many subs who build and design websets.. Perhaps its a trait, perhaps submissive people have an artistic flair, it would certainly seem so from the large amount of sites i have found hosted by subs and their respective Dominant/Masters.
We, MG and i have been building websites for some time now, not just as a past time but on a semi professional basis and we laugh when we look back on our first few tentative steps a few years ago at some of the awful designs we can up with them. However, i have to say that the seekers website and lately our own personal ones, please me a great deal. MG says i have the artistic flair and i say He is the words smith..so yet again, we make a good team. And that's what relationships are all about really, team work, fitting together, mutual likes and dislikes, same goes for D/s and M/s.
It has been said on more than a few occasions that compatibility is paramount within the lifestyle, this is so true, for it just will not work if the likes and dislikes of those involved do not come close to harmonious. How is it likely to ever get off the ground if Mr Dom is a real out and out sadist and Miss sub hates the very thought of pain... or if humiliation is your buzz word and it just doesn't do anything for your other 'arf.
Just not going to work, is it ? No matter how much you try, the old saying that a Leopard cant change his spots, is very much to the fore here, the Dom who has not got the ability to inflict pain on the masochistic sub, or the sub who will not be one of a pair or threesome, i.e a polygamous relationship that the Dominant wishes to incorporate into His D/s, just do not "Dove Tail" and no amount of trying, just to please, will make it work. Compatability from the outset should always be considered, if the shoe doesn't fit the first time you try it on, no amount of squeezing into it is going to make it comfortable.!!

Ahhhh.. MG's favorite analogy.. Dove tailing... take the cabinet maker who builds the exquisite piece of furniture, the corners mitred with such care that not a gleam of light or room for any glue, to hold the pieces together, can be seen, they fit to perfection, each joint honed with loving care and attention to detail so that they fit so snugly together, the cabinet will last for years and years. If the joints are not made correctly from the outset, from the very first design stage of the process, if one cut or saw stroke is wrong, the whole cabinet will be out of alignment even to the finished product. Get it right, and you will end up with a beautifully constructed and long lasting article.
A second analogy i place here for the readers delight, written by MG some time ago, it is titled. "The Art of the Diamond Cutter", i hope you enjoy.

Imagine the perfect cut diamond. Every facet of the gem has life, when light and shade dance upon them. The art of the diamond cutter is one that cannot be easily appreciated. He must have feeling for the stone and be able to understand how it will react to light and dark. No two stones are the same, so the craft is in the knowing. Knowing what to do, what not to do, how to fashion the wonderful cuts that create the brilliance of the perfect diamond.
However, a perfectly cut diamond can only be created if the original, uncut gem is perfect too. The Diamond Cutter must be able to see the potential in the uncut stone. He must be able to release that potential by use of the fewest number of changes; a skill that comes only with time.
I have seen the potential in you, and with your help I have created a perfect gem. But remember that the beauty of the finished article is only there because of the intrinsic perfection that was in the uncut diamond when it came to me.
I am nothing more than a catalyst, one who brings out what is there already. You were perfection when I found you. I have simply made the light shine a little brighter.
Thank you for the opportunity.
