What's a soul mate. Do we all have the same souls, is it universal or are they shaded by personalities?

Soulmate (or soul mate) is a term sometimes used to designate someone with whom one has a feeling of deep and natural affinity, friendship, love, intimacy, sexuality, spirituality and/or compatibility. A related concept is that of the twin flame or twin soul – which is thought to be the ultimate soulmate, the one and only other half of one%26#039;s soul, for which all souls are driven to find and join.

Twin soul or in other words %26quot;true love%26quot;.





Legends said, humans originally were combined of four arms, four legs, and a single head made of two faces, but Zeus feared their power and split them all in half, condemning them to spending their lives searching for the other half to complete them.

here is an interesting quote...





%26quot;people think your soul mate is your perfect fit, and thats what everyone wants, but, a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that%26#039;s 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%26#039;ll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever..? Nah, too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yoursefl to you, and then they leave. And thank God for it.%26quot; - Elizabeth Gilbert

I think the word %26quot;soul mate%26quot; can mean so many different things. To me, its like a connection. Any connection where you feel it so deep, you feel like your soul has the hardest grip on the other person%26#039;s soul. A connection is a connection...good or bad. Sometimes we have a strong deeeep connection with someone, but It%26#039;s unhealthy. Thats what that quote means to me. Not that i%26#039;ll never be able to live with me soul mate forever...just reasurance that people come and go and it%26#039;s ok b/c thats what was suppose to happen.
Reply:I think it is just a fancy. %26quot;soul%26quot; is itself an unknown; a hypothesis, in some respects unnecessary. Talking of %26#039;soul mates%26#039; is just a way of saying that two persons are very close.

I will not tire you with words.


A soul mate is an answer to an unspoken question.


Same souls? Universal?----- Is every fingerprint alike?


Is every snowflake the same?
Reply:While marriage is difficult, and discordant and frustrated marriages are common, yet real, lasting happiness is possible, and marriage can be more an exultant ecstasy than the human mind can conceive. This is within the reach of every couple, every person. “Soul mates” are fiction and an illusion; and while every young man and young woman will seek with all diligence and prayerfulness to find a mate with whom life can be most compatible and beautiful, yet it is certain that almost any good man and any good woman can have happiness and a successful marriage if both are willing to pay the price.





There is a never-failing formula which will guarantee to every couple a happy and eternal marriage; but like all formulas, the principal ingredients must not be left out, reduced, or limited. The selection before courting and then the continued courting after the marriage process are equally important, but not more important than the marriage itself, the success of which depends upon the two individuals—not upon one, but upon two.
Reply:I think a soul mate is someone who just gets you.....it%26#039;s as though when you met you%26#039;ve known each other forever.





A soul mate does not have to be the opposite gender.....it can be a same-sex soul mate.....a friend.
Reply:One aspect of the soul is awareness. Awareness is universal. There can be no two ways of experiencing awareness. It is wordless and without opinion and is not subjective.





It is when we observe via the shades of ego or personality that our view of things becomes blurred.





Ram Dass said that people are like the fingers of God and each finger is a representative of God%26#039;s awareness. God is aware of everything via all sentient beings that possess awareness. It is we who imagine we are separate and the mind creates an image of personality that creates the illusion of separateness.
Reply:its what is known as true love,when both parts love each other with all there heart,and soul..Two people with caring,loving,understanding,always there for the other in all things,weather in bad time or good,abiding truly by the vows you take in marriage,upholding them to the end,the gift of giving true love to another as they give back the same to you..
Reply:Soul is how we describe the intelligence of a rational being. The soul is able to deduce beyond what we experience naturally, so it is supernatural or spiritual.





Soul-mate describes the compatible union of one person%26#039;s emotions and reason with another person.
