He will sit there for as long as I need. My closeness to him helps me to get past my stress and be able to cope better. He is my safe place. My calm place. When everything else is going to hell, I can run to his arms and feel like I can let go of everything else for as long as I'm there.

This peaceful feeling is not limited to just when I'm kneeling at his feet though. I feel this way when ever he is exerting his control over me, however he chooses to do that. Being his slave simply makes me feel better about everything.

So, no, being stressed does not make it harder for me to be a slave. Being stressed makes me cling to it more than ever.
I couldnt agree more. I LOVE sitting at my Masters feet with my head in his lap as he plays with my hair and affectionately says "My pet" in that low rumble of a voice that drives me completely batty and makes me melt....
