I deleted all the old journal entries.  I am once again unowned and now have to find myself again.

I have been doing a lot of introspection lately.  While I am not anywhere near complete, I do have some thoughts on what I want from a man in my life.
*I want a man whose word is Gold,who will do what he says he will and in a timely manner.
*I want a man of integrity.
*I want a man who is honest, who is truthful with his feelings, emotions, beliefs and actions.
*I want a man who is spiritual, who understands the Oneness of the Universe, that love is everything.
*I want a man who is humble and respects others.
*I want a man who is not jealous or arrogant or rude or boastful.
*I want a man who is gentle and kind, patient and true and full of love, all kinds of love, unconditional love.
*I want a man who has faith.  Faith in the Universe, faith in the future, faith in me.
*I want a man with hope and understanding.
*I want a man with strength enough to truly be a tether, a guide, a Dom.
*I want a man that I can trust enough to know that I can let go of my own stronghold and control.
*I want a man who is true to himself and truthful about what that is.

Time will tell......

The most important relationship we have in our lives is with our selves. And even though we are the only ones who are present at every moment of our lives—from birth onward—this relationship can be the most difficult one to cultivate. This may be because society places such emphasis on the importance of being in a romantic partnership, even teaching us to set aside our own needs for the needs of another. Until we know ourselves, however, we cannot possibly choose the right relationship to support our mutual growth toward our highest potential. By allowing ourselves to be comfortable with being alone, we can become the people with whom we want to have a relationship.
Once we’ve satisfied our needs and created our support system, a mate then becomes someone with whom we can share the bounty of all we’ve created and the beauty we’ve discovered within ourselves.
As we move away from tradition and fall into more natural cycles of being in the world today, we may find that there are times where being alone nourishes us and other periods in which a partnership is best for our growth. Being willing to know and love ourselves, and to find what truly makes us feel deeply and strongly, gives us the advantage of being able to attract and choose the right people with whom to share ourselves, whether those relationships fall into recognizable roles or not. Choosing to enjoy being alone allows us to fully explore our most important relationship—the one with our true selves.
