On April 28th, a journey which began right here on Collarme turns in a new direction. Next Saturday i will marry the man who started as a friend and debate partner and rapidly became much more. The nearly 6 years since our first contact in October of 2005 have been a rollercoaster of thrills and challenges, but i wouldn't have missed a moment of it for all the world. In that process we've defined and refined our relationship at least a dozen times, and grown both separately and together more than either of us would ever have dreamed possible. For those who come here and express frustration that "the search" is taking so long, i would offer this advice: Start with yourself. Take the time to KNOW what you need, what you want, and what the difference between the two actually means. Once you figure that out, it's easier to seek others who come closer to meeting those criteria. Don't expect a handful of emails to lead right into hot sweaty kink and that all-too-common phenomenom known as the Velco collar. My steel collar has been on my throat 24/7 for the past 4 years, and next weekend it will be joined by the gold and diamond ring on my finger. Some things in life are well worth the time and effort it takes to nurture and properly develop. We are a Collarme success story!

"The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say. " 

~ J.R.R Tolkien, from The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring 

I’ve been many years on this journey now, and the more I feel things have changed, the more time proves they stay the same.  Newbies come along and transition into experienced kinksters.  Relationships blossom, fade and wither away, sometimes within the same single season.  The cyclical nature of life, the universe and everything begs the question, and the only answer I can find is 42.

Here I am, at 42, still wondering, still searching (although the parameters and nature of my searches change as the years go by,) still trying to fathom these questions.  At times, I find myself caught up in the frustration of not understanding and a sense of being passed by and forgotten.

At those times, I must stop, breathe deeply and remind myself that not all who wander, or wonder, are lost.  I am not left behind… the universe will come back for me.

Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light;
I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
