First of all,
! I think you will love it here. It will take some getting used to, having to retrain your mind/thinking, but it will absolutely be worth it! I don't come from a "Pearl" background, but I did used to spank. Actually I was out of control w/ spanking, yelling, etc, when I found GCM.
I do still struggle w/ obedience-ie you do it when I say to.
That's how *I* was raised, and it's so hard to get out of that mindset. I'm working on it though.
Just wanted to say welcome, and most importantly keep praying about it all!
