I know it is much too late to join in this forum but I am not shy and always like to put two cents in.
I don't think it is something to be afraid of but is surely something not for the faint of heart, nor, unlearned. It is not merely a Domspace issue. I liken it to "Zen and the Art of the Dom," much like "Zen and the Art of Mortorcycle Maintenance," or whatever else You are seeking to attain perfection with. It is the total focus and energy and marshalling of the universe's forces (sounds grand but , hey, why not?) for that attainment. In sports We call it being in the "Zone." In writing or other artistic endeavors it is likened to "I didn't even think, the words just flew out of My mind onto the pages." There are thousands of examples. The difference is that We are at that moment engaged with another human being and performing tasks that take great care. If One is learned and practiced at being in this "other" state, One would hope to approach perfection and therefore the slave is not only, not at risk, but will be led to places heretofore unknown to her and may join You on Your journey. Hence, I tell My girl: Come girl, you may join Me as your Master circumnavigates the universe one amazing star after another.
