A soul mate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we’re pretending to be. Each unveils the best part of the other. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that person we’re safe in our own paradise. Our soul mate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of direction. When we’re two balloons, and together our direction is up, chances are we’ve found the right person. Our soul mate is the one who makes life come to life.
Richard Bach

I like this…..best description I have seen…and when we have a soulmate it is so special…something to nurture, treasure and grow….
And we can have soulmates in different aspects of our lives; lovers, friends, colleagues, etc. It certainly makes life worth living…..
“No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that person we’re safe in our own paradise.” This is awesome, and really sums it all up, doesn’t it??
Yes I think it does sum it all up. Everyone deserves this and should never settle for less.
