What is a Soulmate?
A soulmate is a partner. A soulmate is a partner who is more
than a friend and more than a companion. A soulmate is someone
with whom you feel a bond or a connection. There is not
necessarily an attraction, at least not in the physical or
sexual sense.
A soulmate is someone who accepts your as your are and yet
who also sees your potential. A soulmate is someone who connects
to you and to whom you connect on an inner or deeper level.
Whereas a sexual partner may attract you in a physical way or
with chemistry or personality, a soulmate connects at a
spiritual level.
Soul Mates – Finding True Love and Commitment
By
Sherry
Sims
Finding your true Soul Mate is something that many people
hope to do. We all long for that one special person in our lives
to make everything wonderful. We want to live the fairy-tale
life and find our very own Prince or Princess Charming. We know
that somehow that would make our lives complete.
Finding that one true love, someone that we want to be with
for a lifetime, can be a difficult task. We seem to find more
frogs than princes while on that eternal quest for true love.
Perhaps there are a few things that we have either overlooked,
over-glamorized, or misunderstood.
Think for a minute. What qualities do you think that the love
of your life, that perfect Soul Mate, would possess? Would they
love you unconditionally, put you on a pedestal, take away all
of your tears, make you happy, make you feel secure, and bring
you fulfillment? Ah yes, that would be sweet, and very nice,
indeed.
But let me ask you, what qualities would that Soul Mate you
seek find in you at this very moment? Have you done an honest
critique lately of your strong points and your weak points?
Perhaps you should, because there is a Universal Law that says
"Like Attracts Like".
”Oh my, you mean that I have to be operating at my highest
and best level in order to draw to me the perfect lover and
companion?” “You mean I have to think about what qualities I
have to offer another person as well?”
Oh yes, that is the key.
Now, I know that many of you have some very beautiful
qualities, and are kind and loving and caring and giving, and
still that all important person is missing from your life. And I
know that life doesn't always seem to be fair. So you ask, “What
can I do to change my situation?”
Here is a list of things you can do:
- Make a list of qualities that you desire in a mate.
- Rate yourself on a scale of 1 to 10 about
those qualities. Be honest. Begin everyday to cultivate
and expand those qualities in your own life.
Remember, "Like Attracts Like." Maybe that will require
changes in attitude, expectations, or limited thinking.
- Forgive yourself and anyone else who has ever hurt you or
let you down. Make a list of people or situations that keep
you from loving to your fullest. Say a prayer and ask to be
assisted in letting the hurt go. Forgiveness plays a huge role
in allowing love into your life.
- Surround yourself with beautiful things. That doesn't mean
that you have to spend a lot of money to do this. Pick some
pretty flowers and put them in a lovely vase. Use your
favorite colors in your surroundings. Take a chance and paint
a wall in your favorite color, or add some lovely pillows in a
silky or a velvety fabric. Make your environment one that you
love to be in, one that uplifts you, one that heals your
heart.
- Create. If you love to paint, then paint! If you enjoy
creating things with clay or designing things or sewing, or
gardening, then by all means do it. If you are a musician and
love to play music, then allow yourself the time to do that.
Even if you just love to listen to or dance to certain types
of music, then you must find space within your schedule to do
the things that you love. If you have a hobby that you are
passionate about like golfing, surfing, hiking, etc. you must,
must, must allow yourself time to pursue it.
- Give yourself beautiful experiences. Find some time each
day to spend in Nature. Sit under a tree and breathe in some
fresh air. Go to your favorite park, or to a hilltop
overlooking the ocean or a lake, looking for the beauty in
nature. Watch an uplifting movie, listen to positive music,
read a self help book, listen to motivational tapes, say
prayers, meditate, do something nice for someone else.
You see, these kinds of activities heal the heart. If you have a
wounded heart it is difficult to draw that perfect Soul Mate
into your life.
Universal Law states that "Like Attracts Like". Perhaps
you've noticed that you've only drawn other wounded people into
your life. Since they were looking to get their needs met
through you, and you were looking to get your needs met through
them, then nobody got what they needed because each partner had
some emptiness inside. Who wants to be with someone who is
needy?
The answer is to begin to find ways to fill up that emptiness
in your own life. By healing your heart and filling your life
with beauty, joy, nature, music, and all of the things that you
love, you become whole again. And you no longer need to have a
partner in your life just to "complete you". Relationships that
begin like that usually lead to eventual resentment.
As you become whole again, people will begin to be drawn into
your life in greater numbers. You are no longer needy. You are
now overflowing with loving energy, and you become very
magnetic. Magnetic people draw other people to them naturally.
While you are out in the world filling yourself up with the
things that you love, you will begin to meet new people that are
also living their lives to the fullest, and who aren't looking
for someone else to give them what they need.
While you are pursuing your favorite hobbies and activities
and loving life and living it to it’s fullest your chances
increase of finding your Soul Mate.
So it really comes down to you. You really do have the power
to create real love in your life, and in so doing shift your
personal energy field from a state of being needy to a state of
being magnetic.
It's only by loving yourself, and by living your life to the
fullest that you will find true happiness, and perhaps true
love.
