Was it really me who sat on the floor clinging to His leg and whispered up to Him with tears in my eyes, “I think the week in May is a good idea. For all the reasons you do.”? Did I do that? Me?
Cause, you know, the week in May is a week away. And it’s actually a week and two days.
Was that really me?
Oh god. It was.

“I do not want to be the leader. I refuse to be the leader. I want to live darkly and richly in my femaleness. I want a man lying over me, always over me. His will, his pleasure, his desire, his life, his work, his sexuality the touchstone, the command, my pivot. I don’t mind working, holding my ground intellectually, artistically; but as a woman, oh god, as a woman I want to be dominated. I don’t mind being told to stand on my own feet, not to clingÂ… but I am going to be pursued, fucked, possessed by the will of a male at his time, his bidding.” ~Anais Nin
