The darkness of the early morning still pervades our home, dispelled with the flicking on of a soft light in each room as i pad my way to the kitchen.
Small tasks await me, insuring that all members of the household, both furry and other, are fed and have sustenance for the hours ahead. The day’s schedule fills my mind, reminders of errands to run, bills to pay, and plans to make. Until it is all finished, and then one thought stands tantamount.
The world of schedules, errands, bills, and plans would tell me to put something else ahead of this moment, to do something for me, or at least to question why i am about to act in such a servile manner. But that world never satisfies.
i know better now. i know that nothing is more desirable, more fulfilling, more necessary than putting Him ahead of me. And so, i make His coffee.
Shocked? Expected some sort of salacious, delicious, hot, wet, cum-drenched, early-morning cavorting, did you? Well, i’m not ruling that out, but it is Monday morning after all.
Instead, i brew the dark magical beverage, place cream and one teaspoon of sugar, and stir. My hands cup His favorite mug, and i feel the warmth spread outward to my chilled finger tips. i carry it carefully up each stair until i reach our bedroom.
i walk softly to His bedside, and kneel. He greets me with a gravelly, “Good morning, Babygirl.”
i offer Him the mug, raising it up a bit, using the words of a precious other slave: “From my body, from my heart, from my soul.”
For it is not just a cup of coffee: it is everything about my place, my greatest desire, my hope to always please Him. It is all that i can give in the moment.
And He deems that it is enough. For now.
Rule 31: The opportunity to please my Master is very important to me and I will take every chance to seek out such opportunities to do so to the best of my abilities and in accordance to how i have been taught or allowed to do so.
PS-Thank you to Dr. T. for the video that inspired our usage of the words for the coffee presentation
