Compersion

Now that I've had more than an hour of sleep, I am hit this morning with a delightful wave of emotion. Between play last night where Kitten and I co-topped a friend, being gently forced to sleep after I came down from Topping by Kitten and my foxboy, and simply waking up next to my fiancee and surrounded by people whom I share some level of mutual affection with, I don't care that I have to work today. While I'm hoping that I get out far earlier than originally scheduled, I'll roll with this.

Sitting here in the dark, listening to quiet snores, I feel very much at peace with myself and the world around me, and in love to some degree with each of the people in my room. To me, this is the definition of poly. Loving multiple people at the same time in their own ways and having each of those individual loves multiply and increase the bonds of the others. Appreciating and caring for each individual separately and as part of the bigger whole.
