My Thoughts on a Master’s Growth

I believe that it’s a Master’s responsibility to forever learn and grow, both as a Master and a person. He should strive to learn anything and everything available to assist him in making the Master/slave relationship as strong as possible. The Master should also seek and learn new ways to make that relationship grow and prosper for both himself and his slave. While this education and growth applies to the Masterl himself, it also can apply to a Master learning everything about his slave and all the facets she presents. As an example, if a slave contracts or possesses an illness or affliction, it becomes the Master’s responsibility to learn all that he possibly can about that illness or affliction so that he may provide and care for the slave in a manner that’s most appropriate for her condition. He should also seek to enhance the slave's quality of life in all areas, for a slave that is as healthy as she can be, both physically and mentally, becomes a Masters greatest asset in life.

A Master should also continue to learn new facets of lifestyle play and the safety aspect that goes along with those new facets. It’s one of the Master’s prime responsibilities to keep his slave safe during play sessions. The safety of a slave is one of the most fundamental and primary concerns of a Master and time should be devoted to learning safety as well as the new techniques of the lifestyle.

A Master should also continue to grow as a person in all aspects of life. A master that always strives to be the best he can be, at every endeavor he undertakes, is a Master that becomes worthy of being a true Master to his slave. I believe that a Master’s honor is also something that should grow and flourish with time. While it should always be present, it should be enhanced at every opportunity as an honorable Master is one who holds the relationship to its highest standards for he and his slave. As a result the Master is respected not only by his slave, but also others both in and out of the lifestyle.

Finally, I believe that while it is a Master’s responsibility to control his slave in all aspects of life, I believe that a Master must also learn to control himself under every circumstance and under every condition. He, and only he is responsible for controlling his slave, and their relationship. If he can’t learn control himself properly, then he is at a loss to control anything else in his world.
