Butterfly your writing is lovely. I wish I could express myself as eloquently as you have. Please consider that your writing has truly touched me and will help me to express my own thoughs...paragraphs or none...and to that end I hope you will continue to share your thoughts.
While it is not my place to comment on your prior Dom...I hope that you don't mind hearing that an intelligent, kind, gentle soul deserves all the best and will find her way there, even if it is the long way around.
My best to you,
