The other night I murmured, as I always do before bed,
"I'm yours, Master".
And he replied, as he always does,
"I know, slave".
Then he added, unusually,
"I'm yours too".
I thought about that a second, surprised, and asked,
"You are?"
He replied, "Of course. The leash goes both ways".
It reminded me of this quote: "No one chains a slave without chaining himself." -M. Gandhi
We are certainly tied together, even when he holds the leash and I'm held by it. He leads and I follow, but we are still attached.
