annie's Perspective    on
	Your Body and Submission
	Submission is beautiful.  One of the things i feared was how my Master would perceive my body.  There are several facets about my body that make me very uncomfortable.   I have not been blessed with being thin or tall.  I am half italian and half welsh, both genetically favored to be short and heavy.  I worried about how my Master; after we finally met, would view what He owned.   I will never forget Him saying, "annie, you have on too many clothes".  I remember taking them off, not in a strip tease manner, not as i normally would, helter shelter all over the place, but folding them neatly.  I turned to Him, taking a deep breath, and with a slight shrug of my shoulders saying, "This is me".   That instant, that moment when He looked at the naked me, when His eyes held mine, as i held my breath, waiting for what I do not know, the fear disappeared.  I can't remember what He said as one moment melted into the next.  I moved to kneel  in front of Him, in my spot, knowing that i belonged to Him.  In my heart and my mind this Man owned me.  It was, and is to this day pure ecstasy.   I had worried about how He would see me.  I had commented to a close friend and she replied, "it is your submission that He loves", but I didn't understand. My Master took me to a fetish party the last time W/we were together.  I had never been to one before.  My eyes big as saucers took in all that I could see.  W/we ventured into the area where sceneing took place.  There were Masters with Their submissives and/or slaves on the equipment.  Some women were very large, some average but all looked very beautiful submitting.   It finally made sense to me.  It is submission that is beautiful.  It didn't matter if they were a size 3XXX or a size 6, the light on their bodies was beautiful.  The way their bodies obeyed their Masters was extraordinary.  I finally understood.   I am not a spring chicken by any means.  I have my problem areas as all women do, even if it happens to be every part of our bodies.  I do not think i am overly critical of the way I look, just honest with myself.  I look in the mirror everyday and see me, annie.  The way god made me, the way i am, the way my Master loves me.
