Spiritually speaking, it is said that even before you are
born, the name of your spiritual half if determined. Each soul has a perfect
match… your soulmate.
Although most people think of a soulmate as a perfect
harmonious union of bliss, your true spiritual soulmate is the person intended
to help you “complete yourself.”
Jerry McGuire was right- soul mates complete each other. A
person is unable to complete his mission in life alone. Everyone needs someone
to help them become a better person. This is not always a blissful experience.
Being in an honest, sincere, and committed soul mate
relationship helps you to become a better version of yourself. You have to push
yourself beyond your comfort zone, beyond your limits to find your better self.
Even though we tend to think of soul mates as a symbiotic
union; soulmate relationships can be rough at the beginning. They can be like
two jagged edged puzzle pieces trying to click into place. Sometimes it looks
like you do not fit together at all, but soon after a little bit of twisting,
turning, and flipping the pieces around, you feel the moment of the perfect
click. It’s a feeling deep in your soul, that says, this is the right one.
Often soulmates appear in disguise. You might not be
physically attracted to each other when you first meet, but there is a
mysterious force pushing you forward that tells you this is “the right one” for
you.
You have a personal checklist of everything you want in a
partner. Tall- check. Dark hair (no curls please)-check. Blondes only-check. 6
pack abs- check. Or you can be like Jerry Seinfeld knowing his date is not “the
one” because she eats her peas one at a time.
So, if you are brave enough to move away from your romance
checklist, open your eyes and your heart to unexpected possiblities, you just
might be one of the lucky ones who finds their true soul match.
You know you’ve found your soulmate when:
01.You just know it.
Something deep inside tells you this is the perfect one for
you. It’s as if there is a spiritual force pushing you to let go of everything
you previously expected and to give of yourself completely.
02. You have crossed paths before.
Soulmates have met each other and a previous time. You may
not have connected, but you were in the same place, at the same time. Before my
husband and I met, we lived across the street from each other and worked across
the street from each other. Yet we never met until the time was right.
03. Your souls meet at the right time.
Each person has to be ready to receive the soul connection.
Even though my husband and I were in close proximity of each other for many
years, we did not meet until the time was right for both of us. You have to be
prepared to meet your soulmate. It could be that you have to go through a
relationship that doesn’t work out, or that you’re not ready to ditch your
“perfect person checklist,” but when it comes to soulmates- timing is
everything.
04. Your quiet space is a peaceful place.
Being quiet together is comforting like a fluffy down
blanket on a cold winter night. Whether you are reading in the same room, or
driving in the car, there’s a quiet peace between you.
05. You can hear the other person’s silent
thoughts.
With soulmates, there is such depth to your relationship
that you can feel and hear what your partner is thinking, even if it is not
verbally expressed.
06.You feel each other’s pain.
You stand in each other’s shoes. You know each other so
well, that the second he walks in the door, you can tell how his day was. You
feel each other’s feelings; sadness, worry, and stress. And you share each
others’ happiness and joy.
07. You know each other’s flaws and the
benefits in them.
Yes, it’s true. Our flaws have benefits. Every trait has a
positive as well as a negative side. It’s the task of each person to always
look for the good, even when things don’t look so good. There is usually a
benefit to each flaw.Stubborn people are good decision makers. Overly organized
people are great at paying bills on time.
08. You share the same life goals.
You’re both on the same page with values, ethics, and goals.
You may have a different way of reaching those goals, but you both want the
same end result.
09.You’re
not afraid of having a conversation.
Conversations can be challenging. Expressing concerns or
attempting to make decisions is uncomfortable. Soulmates know that if they join
together, they will be able to work it out.
10.
You are not threatened by the need for alone time.
Whether it’s tennis three times a week or girls night out,
you respect each others’ need for independence, knowing that when you get
together, your time alone is special.
11. You don’t experience jealousy.
Pretty girls at the office or handsome personal trainers
aren’t a threat to your relationship. You are secure knowing that you are the only one.
12. You respect each other’s differences
and opinions.
You know you have different opinions. Often soulmates are
polar opposites. At times this is challenging. These are the times when you are
being forced to let the other person complete you. You still have your own
opinion, but instead of agreeing to disagree, there is a deep level of respect
for each other. You listen and honor the differences.
13. You don’t scream, curse, or threaten
each other with divorce.
Of course you feel anger. People unintentionally hurt each
other. But soulmates aren’t nasty, hurtful, or punitive.
14. You give in because you want to make
your partner happy.
Giving is can often occur in unhealthy, co-dependent, or
abusive relationships. But soulmates give to each other for the sole purpose of
making each other happy.
15. You know how to apologize.
It’s not easy to say “I’m sorry” or admit that you did
something that hurt the person you love. Soulmates realize that their actions
or words caused harm. Even if they feel justified in their point of view, if
their partner was hurt by it, they can easily apologize for the harm they have
caused.
16. You would marry each other again.
You know this is the one and only one for you. Even through
the tough times, you would choose your partner again. You feel a sense of pride
in your partner.
17. You complete each other.
Yes, I’m sorry to say it but, your partner fills in your
blanks. No person is perfect. We all have our strengths and weaknesses. Soulmates
compliment each other. It’s the yin and yang of perfect harmony. One person may
be an extrovert, while one is an introvert. One may be social, while the other
a homebody. Soulmates are often opposites that are attracted to a person who
has their missing pieces.
18. Being in each other’s arms washes away
all your stress, worries, and anxiety.
There is no place you’d rather be at the end of the day but
in each other’s arms. If you had a rough day filled with disagreements, a fight
with your boss or if you missed the train, whatever happened is gone the second
you cuddle up together. There is a warmth in your heart, an inner peace you can
feel. No words need to be spoken. All that exists is the silent, blissful union
of two souls together. Two souls that were meant to be together eternally.
