Today's Morning Thought


Universal Feelings

Everything is Relative

Every day we hear stories of personal suffering and loss that far exceed our own. When we compare our situations to those of people living in war-torn countries or those who have lost their homes and livelihoods to natural disasters, it is tempting to minimize our own experiences of suffering. We may feel that we don’t have a right to be upset about the breakup of a relationship, for example, because at least we have food to eat and a roof over our heads.

Soul Mates

Sometimes people are unable to make a commitment because they compare their new partner to some perfect fantasy person of their dreams.  They may love a person, but wonder if they are making the right decision to be with them. They want to make sure they get the best person they can.  They may worry that maybe somewhere there is a better person for them.  By expecting their soul mate to be perfect, they do not give themselves a chance to find true and lasting love.

This person postpones making a commitment because they are expecting perfection.  They imagine that their soul mate is perfect. They do not have a realistic perspective of relationships and people.   A soul mate is not a perfect person.  There is no such person everyone continually changes because that is the process of evolution.

The realization that a person is a soul mate happens after time has been taken to know each other.  It is unrealistic to expect this recognition right away.  It takes time for our hearts to open fully to one another.  When love grows, then we just know one day if our partner is right for us.  This recognition is not a mental assessment. It is a natural knowing.

The right person for us is recognized by our soul, not by our mind.  The soul does not figure things out.  It just knows!  This is the person for me.  If we try to figure out if a partner is right, then we will be judging them from our mind.   From this perspective, they will never be enough.  Our mind will always find a list of flaws.  To pick a soul mate, we must choose from our soul.
