I was looking at the Netflix show Billions. I like it a great deal, and the term, arousal template came up with one of the characters whose lifestyle follows the BdSm path. It got me to considering the language. I see a template as a fixed thing and arousal as a fleeting thing. It tickled me because it sent my mind to the last experience I have had where I was completely thrown off guard by my own feelings. Thus stated, my template was the timbre of a voice. The intensity of a stare, the smell of the chosen fragrance, the confidence of his stance, the stillness of his countenance. The quiet of his smile. The beauty of his person. The subtle give and take between us. The timing, the anticipation of the next move, the not sure, timidity met with determination. The hope , the easiness. The halting struggle within and the reward of more.
