As usual, I agree very much with what LP is saying. Long before I discovered all of this, I had people telling me I had 'It' and I didn't have a clue what 'It' was. I knew people involved in BDSM and power exchange on both sides of the kneel, they also told me I had 'It'. I laughed because I had a very skewed idea of what BDSM even was. I was utterly clueless. I actually like that I walk around basically clueless 90% of the time. There was a time when I began this particular little journey that I was walking around with quite a cob up my arse. I was a royal cunt. Fortunately I've got enough people in my life that have no reserve in knocking me off my self built pedestal. It's a good thing. Of course there are times when I am feeling particularly 'It' and get more notice while in public but for the most part I've learned that life is a lot easier if I make a concentrated effort to tone it down and not do the QueenoftheFuckingUniverse schtick. I have been able to find a balance, a way to project expectations and chill the arrogance or demand.....if that makes sense. I prefer to hold myself to high standards and appreciate others efforts of such, in their own way. Basically, I try not to take myself too seriously but really dig when others do more than I, and show it of their own desire rather than my expectation. It happens frequently but not so much so to give me a fat head. If that makes a lick of sense.
