Words of Wisdom #24

"People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so out of control that you have to transform your life..."

- Elizabeth Gilbert


*Once upon a time, I believed that a soul mate had to be the perfect fit for you, but other the last year I've change my own belief. A soul mate does fit you perfectly, but he/she rather is your other half, the other half you. He/she shows you more about you than you may not even know about yourself.*
