Just Feel It

Richard Bach once said, ~A soulmate is someone who has the lock to fit our keys, and the 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 be who we are; We can be loved for who we are, and not for who we're pretending to be. Each of us unveils the best part of one another. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that one person in our lives, we are safe in our 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.~

Let me ask you this question, do you believe in soulmates? Whether or not you believe in it, every person is connected to each other in some way, shape, or form, though it may or may not be a romantic connection, it's a connection nonetheless. A kindred spirit who cares about you, understands you, and what you are going through. In a way, it’s like that person can tune into the same frequency that you are in and yet others before that person have never been able to come close to getting a clear reception. It can be an exciting and somewhat scary situation when you talk with some and find out that you have the same interests as that guy or girl. For it's a rarity to find someone who you can truly connect with in mind, body and soul.

Every person has experienced talking with someone either online or face to face for the first time and when you go your separate ways, their presence haunts you. Yet, with only that one meeting it's like one has known that person forever. Let me ask you this question, have you ever had that feeling of being drawn to someone that you don't even know; but for some reason you feel absolutely comfortable talking with that person about important issues and beliefs which wouldn't normally be shared with someone so quickly. Personally speaking, I've had that feeling only once in my life and I felt excited and scared at the same time to the point where I basically asked myself, is she "the one"?

In any case, there will always be that one person who will always be there in our dreams, thoughts, and heart, even though he or she isn't in our lives personally. It's that one person that you could be open, honest and not shy with, but with anybody else it's impossible. Yet, when things in life seem dark and dreary he or she will step into it and brighten your world with either an email, phone call, or a surprise visit. In some aspects, its like meeting an old friend that you haven't seen in a very long time and both of you need to make up for lost time. Inevitably, when a person is about ready to give up on ever finding love and happiness, somehow through pure luck it will show up.

Someone once said, ~Sometimes, if you're lucky...you get close enough to a person(usually the opposite sex) to see beyond the immediate physical features and "touch" what may be the soul. Obviously, if both experience this at the same time its effort is greatly magnified. The entry point(for me) is the eyes...and although I'm trying now to put feelings into words I know that its really beyond description...beyond words...And yet maybe one word comes a little close...Love.~ In retrospect, whether or not you believe in soulmates, you have to admit love is a powerful thing which can transcend even death. Ultimately, you can't explain how a deep love between two people has such a strong connection, in the end you just feel it.
