OK.  So I totally believe that 

Spanking should be a synonym.

Now hear me out.

FOR ME:

Spanking provides such an amazing release of endorphins

but not only that...it provides a release of stress adn strain.  

a release from my feelings of guilt.

It provides venting - typically by the spanker :)

I certainly can have an emotional purge

I so feel cleansed after a good spanking.

Now there are punishment spankings and fun spankings.

For me, both provide release and relief and general uplifting of spirits.

even if my spirits started out being high...they just get higher :)

So the other day, I was having a day.

I was snippy and short

I was frustrated with the world 

(most notably my family as they were close by)

I was short with Sir and in a general bad mood.

By mid afternoon, Sir and I had a spat.

He marched me into our room and proceeded to spank me.

He spanked in a concentrated place on one cheek.

He landed blow after blow, no warm up, all sting.

It hurt - not in a good way.

I was squirmy and fussy and didn't like the spanking.

He continued - and I took it.

After what seemed like...forever...

He switched to the other side.

He proceeded to do the same thing.

It hurt - and went on forever.

At the end, he pulled me up and hugged me and we talked.

We both off to do our thing 

and I found I was just in a funk.

I decided to go to our room and 

I laid down for a little bit.

My head hit the pillow and I burst into tears.

I sobbed..openly and loudly and NOT prettily :(

I just came on me.
I was so overcome with emotions.

I AM NOT A CRYER.

I don't hardly ever cry.

I got up and walked out and found Sir

who immediately brought me back to our room,

laid me down and held me close.

Once I was able to stop sobbing,

I realized that the spanking had allowed me to get it out.

To cry and let go.

It was so cathartic.

When I was done, and he held me and loved me

I felt a thousand miles high.

My spirits were lifted and my heart lighter.

Spanking is truly an amazing gift of Catharsis!
