SOULMATE

''But how will I know who my Soulmate is?''
''By taking risks,'' she said to Brida. '' By risking failure, disappointment, disollusion, but never ceasing in your search for Love. As long as you keep looking, you will triumph in the end.''



I have never really thought of importance to find a soulmate until yesterday when I picked Paolo Coelho ''Brida'' up. I felt like that book was screaming at me to pick it up and read it, and I have to admit I could not stop until I read it all, it took just 3 hours and all the rest of the day was spent thinking of what are my priorities.
Everone is trying to find their ''The One'', but there are so many varieties of what ''The One'' is. World is full of surprises, for someone it's a fast car, for another its a pillow, for someone else it is just a person who completes them. I wonder if people would give up everything they have learned or everything they possessed until then – all the possibilities that the world could offer them in order to stay with the love of their life? I am pleased that until now I have never had to make such a choice because the decision would be one of the hardest I would ever have to make. Would I be able to give up my love to someone just because my material possessions or my status would be more important, I can not tell yet. They say that in your life you can meet more than one soulmate, but there is a trick though, it might take years until you meet another soulmate and, in fact, you might never meet them, which would be only reasoable. Why would someone deserve to meet more than another soulmate if they did not appriciate the first one they met. It is abotu taking risk, isn't it?
In the end of the day it is about playing our own part in this wonderful play called ''Life'', and at some point we will find our partners, people have done it for thousands of years, so being afried is a complete waste of time.
We all should take more risks, coz there is reward there always is, it's just people just can not see it, because they are way too worried about not doing the same things all over again, but why, why would anyone to repeat same actions all over again and again. If we stoped living in past in our memories, we would discover what a beautiful life they live in..


Sooo from now on, we take risks and look for that special light in people eyes, because who knows we might be looking in our soulmates eyes without even knowing that.
