SOULMATES

in love •  7 years ago 

I've thought about this a lot. Here's my best attempt answering this....

Do I feel he's the only one on the planet for me? No..... So does that mean he's not my soulmate? That's up for debate. I feel he is my person. I don't typically call him 'my man' because I feel he's his own man and doesn't 'belong' to me. I do however feel he is my person because he really gets my brain, my quirks, my gifts and he's taken a tremendous amount of time to get to know me, (body, mind, spirit) He knows how to hold space for me and he pushes me harder than anyone ever has to be my best.

I am literally more attracted to this man everyday. My desire for him is crazy, stupid, delicious and a little overwhelming at times. I want him all.the.time.

  • Do I believe I could love again if we separate? Absolutely.
  • Does he complete me? No I'm complete on my own.
  • Does he make my life better? Yes, every single day.

I love him madly yet responsibility. I haven't lost myself in him, I haven't forgotten who I am and why I'm here. I don't feel scared about our future together even though our future is unknown. Why? Because even if it all fades away I still have me. I really like me and I've worked my ass off to become a conscious woman of integrity that I can be extremely proud of. I've truly 'got me'. Nothing short of death can stop me from showing up in the world and living my purpose.

Maybe what I've realized is that I'm my own soulmate. I think that is why I can love him the way I do. I love him without fear of being without him and I don't feel the need for us to have a label.

It's not the dizzy, head spinning, heart pounding feeling I used to call love. It's much deeper, wiser, consistent, and steady. I know without a doubt the reason I've attracted this man into my life is because I did my work and I continue to do my work everyday without excuse.

good post !!!!!!!!!!

Excellent post and I am in complete agreement - I could easily have written this about my husband, because clearly our journeys, and conclusions, have been similar.

It's refreshing to read a post about love written by a grown-up. Thank you.
