Soulmates

People often confuse soulmate to a life partner but it is not. You can have more than one soulmates and I'd rather define soulmate as someone who doesn't have difficulty understanding you, in other words, both know each other so well even when they have just met.

I think I've found soulmates of mine. Some are my best friends, some are just friends but I just know that these people are my soulmates. They are the person that you share random things with. They can be both male and female. A soulmate is not a lover, they just happen to be the person you can clique instantly. In my 30s, it's very hard to find people with the same interest. It's like  I have this interesting book that I want to tell you about, but it's difficult finding a friend who can share this enthusiasm that you have towards the book. Sometimes, keeping something as exciting as the book to yourself making you feel so alone intellectually. Oh my, I just miss all of you, dear soulmates. So, ending this entry with a quote from "Eat, Pray, Love". So true that it makes me cry.

 “People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. 
A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...”
