Personal hygiene is important and I have never been a fan of a quick shower. I like water too much for that and simply having it rush down my skin does not seem to be satisfying enough to me. I have always been a fan of having a bath, the bubbles and the sheer tranquility of resting half submerged in the warm water are restful to me. Being clean is a necessity and coupling it with something that brings you pleasure seems to make a lot of sense. While living alone I had to do all the things to sustain me by myself, there simply was no one available to help me or to do things for me.
It has been a long time since I had someone with me. Living the relationship that I have has always been joyful, yet while my slave and I were physically separated I learned to focus on different pleasures. Mostly those which are not tied into a measure of close proximity. Having her with me opens a whole new world of simple pleasures. It also opens Pandora’s box a little further than before
I pride myself in having an able slave with the desire to have a career and I am quite capable of the mundane chores living together bestows upon us. I can draw my own bath, I can do the laundry and I can cook. I can iron, vacuum and clean the windows. I can do the grocery shopping and all the other chores necessary for a successful relationship, but do I want to?
Even with my slave getting ready to enter the dreadful cycle of nine to five work once more, as her owner should I not rest my desire to be served completely on her shoulders?
Lucky for me I have a much stronger desire for her to be successful in her career than I need to have her draw my bath. It makes it much easier for me to follow the rationale of time and how that fits around my desire to claim all her free time.
The train of thought is very simple. My slave and I are supposed to work hard and generate the necessary income to buy us time. No one can generate time and our linear thinking of time complicates matters quite a bit, but we can buy ourselves time by offloading the tasks which would consume it otherwise. I have always expressed to my slave that once she goes back to her regular work schedule I will make an effort to find a maid or someone else who will be in a position to help with selected tasks around the house.
We are by no means rich, but combining our income we are wealthy by Canadian standards and I would rather spend a little bit of money to have one more hour alone and uninterrupted with my slave than spend it on something which has no lasting value.
Dry your tears now, this is not an utterly romantic notion of my desire to bask in my slave’s love. I am greedy and I like to have life lived my way. I refuse to accept that I have to follow the same rules and standard procedures everybody else follows. My desire to free my slave’s time has nothing to do with my desire to make her life easier, it is a reflection of my desire for her to serve me. Without distractions and without the necessity to stretch herself so thin that she is no longer fit to serve.
I want quality in everything I own and everything I do. I expect the highest level of dedication and craftsmanship from my slave in everything she does for me. I consider it my duty to create an environment where she can focus on that and this is most easily done by creating a home that is well cared for. If that means someone else cares for some of the more mundane aspects, then so be it.
Time is more precious than anything else on this planet to me, it cannot be created and once the opportunity to restructure a particular action is gone, it will not come up ever again. Balancing these opportunities and maintaining a relationship which allows us both to exploit them fully is somewhat the next step in my ownership of her.
The discussion around having a toy in our home is not only important to me because I know that my slave and I would have a lot of fun with her, but also because I would expect her to help with the creation of the environment I described above. Just as my slave has a career, I would expect the same of the toy, most likely it would be University studies for her, depending on her age, but still I would put more burden on her shoulders. Having the ability to balance the chores between three people, yes I include myself, makes life easier for all of us, frees up time and thus allows us to exploit opportunities.
It is my sincere belief that many relationships fail because we get trapped in a routine that becomes so frustrating and depressing that we either break free by doing something that hurts our partner or by running away, thus deserting the relationship as a whole. The saying variety is the spice of life does not exist for nothing, the inherent truth to those words is that we thrive on new sensations and that such new experiences can rekindle a dying flame.
I need to have my bath, I need to brush my teeth, I need to eat, I need to wash my clothes and a hundred other things in order to sustain a decent standard of living, but I do not need my slave to become my maid. She does not have time for that, I expect other things of her, so now it is left to me to make that happen.
