Soulmates - Fact or Fiction
When I was a young girl my mama told me that one day I would grow up, fall in love, marry a man, maybe have a baby and grow old with a beautiful family. We would do things like me and my parents did. We would go to the zoo and Mardi Gras parades. We would have dinners and picnics, go on vacation, school functions and I would be happy because I had found my soul mate.
So what happens if you go through all of the steps but you aren’t happy?? What if you aren’t happy because you are not in love and you feel as though the real person, your “soul mate” is still out there waiting for you.
So you get out, start fresh, find someone that makes you happy.
But…do we all have someone out there that is meant for us…one person that we are destined to be with forever? Seems hard to believe but exciting to look forward to.
That brings me to my next pondering thought…does fate exsist or are we just all aimlessly wondering around this world hoping that one day we come across someone that we will enjoy or even tolerate. If you can tolorate someone does that mean that we should put all of our ever so many eggs in his basket?? Seems scary.
And riddle me this…what if you find someone that you are so head over heels for that you can not imagine life without them? and what if that person they you love so intensly seems to love you back. The chemistry is there, you have fun together, and you feel as if you could spend the rest of your life with this person.But somewhere down the road things start to turn bad. Little by little the fights happen more and more often and you begin to do things and say things that you would have never thought you would do or say to this person.
So you end the relationship.
So where is this soulmate??? Is it all a figment of the imagination? Should the word just be taken out of our vocabulary? Should we just settle for what we get or keep looking until we find someone amazing?
