i have always had very low self esteem, stemming from school. my Master is so kind and gentle with me when He thinks i need Him to be and sometimes, when being corrected, He is very harsh. But once i have received my punishment He is straight back to making sure i am ok. He tells me often how beautiful i am and how proud of me He is and when i gave Him my submission He thanked me and told He was so pleased to have been given this gift. So now i work hard to make it a gift for Him everyday.
