Friday, June 26th, 2009Some people believe that there is a soulmate for everyone, others do not. I’d like to hear what you think…is there such thing as a soulmate? What is a soulmate? Do you have one or have you found yours yet?
Here are a few quotes about soulmates to help get you started.
********************************
“Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.”
~Aristotle
“Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.”
~Emily Brontë
“Ah! a blessing beyond all fate
My sole mate ’tis my soul mate.”
~Pixie Foudre
“Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.”
~Zora Neale Hurston
“Soul meets soul on lovers’ lips.”
~Percy Bysshe Shelley
“For twas not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart
Twas not my lips you kissed
But my soul”
~Judy Garland
“A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we’re pretending to be. Each unveils the best part of the other. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that one person we’re safe in our own paradise. Our soulmate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of direction. When we’re two balloons, and together our direction is up, chances are we’ve found the right person. Our soulmate is the one who makes life come to life.”
~about courtship with Leslie Parrish – Richard Bach
“Run your fingers through my soul. For once, just once, feel exactly what I feel, believe what I believe, perceive as I perceive, look, experience, examine, and for once; just once, understand.”
“Love is the life of the soul. It is the harmony of the universe.”
~William Ellery Channing
“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: One Woman’s Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia)
“And when one of them meets with his other half, the actual half of himself, the pair are lost in amazement of love and friendship and intimacy and one will not be out of the other’s sight even for a moment.”
~ Plato 2,500 years ago
