Walls



Walls do serve a purpose. Not only are they to keep someone at arm's length, but more importantly they are to protect and keep ourselves very safe, guarded. Many think they themselves can take those walls down, against our will. However, my Friend DaddyBear once said, 'I can give you the tools but only you can decide to use them.’ And He was right.

Yes, I have walls around my heart because the fear of additional pain is so great that I have boxed myself into this small emotional corner.

Fear does not have any special power unless you empower it by submitting to it. ~ Les Brown

'It is only to a true master that I could submit,' she said, 'not to a weakling.' 'If you submit yourself, clearly and explicitly,' I said, 'you may discover that he whom you thought to be a weakling may not in actuality be such at all.' ~ John Norman, Vagabonds of Gor, pg. 219
