On authentic living & being 'true to yourself'
My (Mike's) personal recollections of amazing moments shared, published with permission of all person(s) involved. Though hosted on SMA’s site, these writings may not specifically be about sensual massage but are simply my journey, experiences and musings about life, the universe and everything in-between.
EXPOSITION
For the longest time, I've lived my life as close to the principles of being 'true to myself' as I could. As with many things in life, however, it's easy to say, but hard to do. Still, I keep trying.
Being 'true to yourself' for me, is twofold:
Understanding who we really are, deep inside.
Having the courage to accept ourselves as we are and living our life congruent to that.
I believe that the closer we come to living authentically, the greater our chance at finding peace and a deep sense of joy.
This doesn't have to be specific to kink. However, kink tends to be particularly relevant, because of its largely taboo status. Many of us have learned to suppress it, and pretend that it doesn't exist inside. But yet it does.
Freedom to be ourselves can be pretty addictive and exhilarating, a deep sense of being exactly where we should belong, a sense that all is right.
DEVELOPMENT
These thoughts framed a second session with F, where we continued to peel away layers of negativity, guilt and shame, only to find the beauty and communion that lay within.
I've noticed that second / third sessions almost always turn out better than first ones, because the initial reticence has been overcome. We begin to feel comfortable with the other person - that we understand them better, and likewise feel better understood.
Certainly, a stronger air of anticipation existed for what was to come..!
RECAPITULATION
We began by practicing appreciation - the act of showing care via skinship. Slowly taking our time to touch, and, in our touch - relaxation, restoration and communication took place.
I especially enjoyed how sensitive she was, I could feel her skin trembling at my slightest touch. Taking all the time in the world, we slowly created a safe cocoon of care and acceptance that formed the foundation for the debauchery to come. Yes, we felt the freedom to be unbridled and wanton, and it was all good.
The session slowly but surely unfolded, I started to ramp up the heat as we gave way to our base instincts and primal urges.
We explored restraints - tying her spreadeagled to the bed, there was an air of surrender, vulnerability and sexual energy that we both savored.
In the most intense moments, I could see her delightfully straining against the ropes - muscles taut, every fibre of her being lost in the waves of pleasure that threatened to overwhelm her... What a sight to behold!
You know, I could take another several thousand words to describe what we physically did - we really did explore and experience a lot!
However, at the end of the day, what mattered to me was not the form (what we did) but the essence (our communion). It's easy to forget what we did, and in what order, but how we felt - that stays for a long, long time. And because we truly connected, everything felt good, and felt right.
As we closed the mini-chapter on our session, we shared a happy afterglow that carries on, even until today - several days later!
CODA
Amassing memories to last a lifetime, I continue to seek the light in the darkness; The beauty in the madness; The smile in the sadness. Already, am looking forward to the next adventure to come! :)
I would like to encourage you, dear reader and friend, to seek to live life 'true to yourself' too. Huggsss.
Cheers, Mike 😘😘😘
