Increased Whippings

Dear Goddess,

i spent most of today in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. i drove thru the Amish country on the way there, it is always fascinating to see those folks. It really makes you sit back and reflect on life, seeing a group of people who thrive on voluntarily rejecting modern technology. They have an astounding approach on life and are steadfast pacifists. A few years back a madman shot and killed a half dozen Amish girls in a school house. He then shot and killed himself as the police were closing in on him. At his funeral his friends and relatives were outnumbered by the Amish folks who came to comfort his wife because she was one of their neighbors. Many of the Amish folks attending his funeral were relatives of the girls he had killed. None of them had anything bad to say about the man. They all expressed sorrow that he was deranged and they prayed for his soul.

i am glad that You had a good time at lunch today with Your friends. i am also glad that You seemed pleased by my latest whipping. Although You originally instructed me to whip myself five times each week i have had to increase the number of whippings substantially. After five whippings the marks on my back are nowhere near severe enough to satisfy You. It seems that You have grown to enjoy having me well marked for Your pleasure, and i am obliged to please You accordingly.

Your humble servant,
