Soul Mates

Tell me something: do you believe in soul mates? Two people meant to be together for all of eternity. Whose souls should combine together as one. Like two pieces of a puzzle that fit just right. A rusting key that unlocks a treasure chest. Destined to find each other. Love at first sight. Do you believe in all of that? Or any of that?

I do.

I believe there is one person out there for everyone. I'm blessed because I've grown up with a phenomenal example: my parents. They met when they were sixteen years old and have been together ever since. More than half of their lives. Sure they fight (about money... I'm pretty sure my mom's a shopaholic) but they would do anything and everything for each other. I have grown up in a household with so much love and it has made me believe that yes, in fact soul mates are real. My parents are soul mates. I know it.

It's safe to say (as shallow as it is) that one of my greatest fears is to not find my soul mate. What if I can't find that one person whose hand fits with mine perfectly as if they were created together. What if I do find that person but it's too late? There are so many things that could go wrong... That's where fate steps in. I'm also a big believer in "everything happens for a reason." What's meant to be will be. It will always find its way.

 I think that God has a plan for me and I just need to trust him. I love the saying about telling God your future plans and God laughs or something? Ahh. I wish I knew what it was.

Serendipity. Fate. Soul mates. Love. Destiny. Love at first sight. True love's kiss. I believe in it all. It's magical and it's miraculous. It's hopeful and it's happy. These are the things we dream about and wiish for throughout our lives. Yes, I dream of puppies and Channing Tatum on clouds too, but I thought I'd go with a more conventional approach.
