Trust
I like to think that I trust Sir in all areas. And it’s easy at times, well easy when my will doesn’t get crossed. Recently we decided to build a house while living with my in laws. Before we moved here, Sir had a good job lead. Because of weather and other factors, the company is not hiring him yet. Which means, us getting a loan is not going to happen until then. I struggle to be patient but finally I broached the subject of me going to work full-time and in the law enforcement field which is the only career I have ever known. He listened patiently to my reasons why this made sense, that I had no intention of making it a career and why shouldn’t I do this for our family. And then he said no…But this time the “no” came with his concerns of me going back into a work environment that triggers the nightmares that don’t leave me after years of a 911 operator. He went on to say that he wanted me to pursue my dream of working with families and children within the foster care system. Something I am training for but seems like it’s out of reach. I didn’t say anything for awhile, I didn’t like his “no”. But I held my tongue and listened for a change. Later that night, he told me how impressed he was that I didn’t argue or get upset with his decision like I usually would. So for now, I am choosing(and it’s choosing everyday) to stay in the safety of his leadership.

That’s fantastic, Cherished! Sometimes it is hard to accept our Doms’ decisions when they differ from what we would have chosen, but doesn’t it feel good to let go?
Hugs!

Wow Cherished that’s great. I too have to work hard to listen and keep myself from arguing when I feel passionate about something. I work everyday to follow my Syr lead. Congrats to you.
