ALWAYS IN THIS TWILIGHT
Why do you always have to show up whenever I feel like I finally have the guts to move on?
Like you're still holding on to me.
Why do you, and only you of all the people on earth, have this power over me?
Like you're the only one who can make my life come to life.
Why do you have to make me feel this way; as though we somehow have a connection?
Like you and I are soul mates.
Do you feel the same way too?
“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...”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

I believe in the concept of multiple soulmates. there are people roaming this earth right now that I shall never meet, but if I did, they'd be my soulmate. we'd be perfect for each other.
ReplyDeleteI believe we have so many soulmates, and I'm lucky enough to have met a few of them. they're people who teach us things, help us grow and perhaps, make us stronger by not being around anymore.
but there will be that soulmate who sticks around. so let's just wait patiently for them to come around :)
If we have multiple soul mates, does it mean we have multiple souls too? Hehe. There will always be "the one". Yeah, I'd love to believe that too. :)
