Interesting Thoughts About Soulmates
I've received a few email messages about my little blog on soulmates. I'll share a few: One person wanted to know what you should do if you meet your soulmate POST marriage. Another thinks we're entitled to more than one soulmate (how fun would that be?) And still another didn't believe in soulmates, and believes it's just an excuse to not commit (mostly for men). My personal favorite: You have to be complete yourself in order to recognize that you've met your soulmate. (HERE,HERE!)
My thoughts and just my thoughts: I think it would be extremely difficult to awake one day and discover the man (or woman) you married isn't the one (whether or not you've met 'the one'), but I'm no marriage counselor and that's a sticky one. I think it would be great to have more than one soulmate, perhaps, as you grow and develop, so does your soul and thus the need for a new soulmate, should your current not advance as quickly as you. Still, the romantic in me believes in just one. A man who doesn't want to commit, doesn't need the excuse of you not being his soulmate...the writing's on the wall. Does anyone else have thoughts on the topic?
OVERHEARD: "I always want to know who's going to be in attendance at dinner parties. I make sure the hostess seats me next to a writer or a salesperson. For guaranteed fun, I say sit yourself right in the middle of them."

My understanding of a soul mate appears to be somewhat different...! A soul mate can be the love of your life. However, I believe a true soul mate is one which will indeed remain eternal and will most likely be encountered in more that one existence BUT (and it's a big BUT !)a soul mate is not necessarily a positive force and definately not always an object of physical desire or love. They appear in many forms and may be of either gender in each seperate existence.
In short, they can be equally negative as they can be wholly positive. The meetings will just continue until the lessons are learned (whatever they may be !!)
Sorry, very little romanticism from me I'm afraid !!
