Who are soulmates? ...

Marriage is one of the most important undertakings in life. People have lots of expectations about this. Some of them are realistic, some may not. In adolescence, people always think about the one they will fell in love with and marry. They dream about a perfect person. A soulmate is a person who understands each other's feelings and interests. They are not just someone that you want to be with, for the rest of your life.

They are not just people you love from the bottom of your heart. A soulmate is a person you had and you always miss even before you have met him others. They are the ones you can recognize at the first meeting, you simply sigh in relief and says, "Thank God! I met you. I was really waiting for you."

There will be no time to understand or to question about the particular person because you've known them for eternity. Some people think soulmates are really fantasy people sent from heaven to protect you from life's ups and downs.

They have no power to make life a magical perfect delight. They can only love you like no one can ever do. There's no need to share the stories of finding each other, because you already 'know' them as well as you know yourself.

Learn to see yourself in their eyes, because then only you can understand them on a soul level. Unfortunately, it's not always a blissful experience. Sometimes we are not ready to meet our soulmates because we are not even ready to look at ourselves through our own minds. You will not be able to love, understand or accept your soulmate until you are able to love yourself truly and deeply.

Did you already meet your soulmate? Did you decide to walk away from each other? Did it scare you or hurt you? Did you experience a hard time? Did you understand each other properly? Did you share the same soul? Did you learn something about unconditional love? Now... Do you miss them? Don't worry... forget the troubles you faced. But remember the lesson you learned from the relationship.

In life there's no going back. Choose the correct path. A little push in the correct direction can make a big difference in your life. So go ahead... you can't return. You can undo your past mistakes. It's useless even to wish for it to happen. But instead of all those... you can always try again and again.

If you've never heard the voice of your soulmate count your blessing. You still have the freedom to love anyone you choose. You can please yourself with a better choice. So... don't try to force yourself for a soulmate relationship.

Always be happy that still you are exactly where you are supposed to be, doing what you want. Be content! that you are free. No problem about the rules, you are free. But you should always remember that you alone have to be responsible for everything you do. It's up to you to decide whether you are really free! or not! Always have limits and boundaries in life.

Are you limitless? Then your freedom comes from letting go. But... if you are clever, you can do anything, go anywhere, feel all the things, whatever your heart tells you. Only thing you have to do is keep yourself from having misunderstanding of what your responsibilities really are. You are responsible only to yourself. Serve it truly and fully and your'll serve all.
