Cornerstones
All successful relationships, no matter the flavor must
contain some very specific foundational premises to
provide an atmosphere that is conducive of continuity
and continuation.
Those foundational Rules are:
- Honesty
- Trust
- Communication
- Respect
The four cornerstones,
They are what we hold most dear, what we take to
the extreme. That is what makes life so beautiful and
keeps us together. Safe, sane and consensual are the
three rings of BDSM. I hold firm to those as well.
If you would like me to explain where I see the
difference in the two, I will gladly. Each of these
factors must exist one with the other. With only
one missing there is then imbalance. The relationship
can not work for any involved. Each factor is
interdependent upon the other, one can not exist
with out the other.
In today's world it seems that commitment is such a
lightly taken word and truly has no value. Words
that are taken and taken back in moments or weeks
with obvious no true intent ever. After a period one
must really question the veracity of the speaker. What
has happend to values? Morals? Integrity? Devotion?
Honesty? Commitment? Even Respect? What are they
any more? Do their true and real meanings yet exist or do
they exist no more?
I say the reason the world is turning as it does is because we
have moved away from a value system built on integrity. How
sad to look around and see the devastation which it causes.
The devastation unavoidable, deadly indeed. Surely not a
place for the weak of heart.
