Is it wrong to enjoy servitude?

I've never enjoyed it myself...but I can't say that it would be wrong to do so....

But...how?

[living-eclogues.livejournal.com]

Perhaps not it's not that I enjoy it, but I have never known any better. And I am happy enough. I have no wish to be free.

No,boy, it is not. It is even more delightful when joy is found in one's calling.

*smiles a little* I am glad to hear that, sir.

[i-metrobius.livejournal.com]

Good. Your master is very fortunate, indeed, to have such a worthy servant.

[living-eclogues.livejournal.com]

Thank you, sir, for thinking me worthy. I only try to serve him as best as I am able, so I may stay his favorite.

[i-metrobius.livejournal.com]

You are quite welcome, boy.

And I am sure you will keep doing your best.

[restoredcurse.livejournal.com]

Hardly.

[living-eclogues.livejournal.com]

But, sir, I hear so much flowery talk about freedom.

it can be an honor to serve one who you respect.

[living-eclogues.livejournal.com]

Is it still an honor if it is not a choice?

[ladylillit.livejournal.com]

No one has a choice but to serve the monarch, where I come from, but I still find it to be an honor to do so.

every situation is different, of course. I am, as a rule, not a fan of forced service, but there is nothing wrong with feeling any way you would about it.
