Soulmates: Real Or Not?

Definition: A person with whom you have an immediate connection the moment you meet -- a connection so strong that you are drawn to them in a way you have never experienced before. As this connection develops over time, you experience a love so deep, strong and complex, that you begin to doubt that you have ever truly loved anyone prior. Your soulmate understands and connects with you in every way and on every level, which brings a sense of peace, calmness and happiness when you are around them. And when you are not around them, you are all that much more aware of the harshness of life, and how bonding with another person in this way is the most significant and satisfying thing you will experience in your lifetime. You are also all that much aware of the beauty in life, because you have been given a great gift and will always be thankful. [Compliments of Urban Dictionary.]

Do they exist?
Is it possible that one person has only one soulmate? And if that's true, what happens when they die? Then are you lonely for the rest of you life? Do you never find the true love you were destined for? Sometimes I believe this to be true, sometimes I wish I could just find my soulmate already. Maybe I have? Maybe I lost him? Is it possible that some of us were born without soulmates? Are we just so complex that we will never find our other half?
Here's a quote from Greek Mythology.
Humans originally consisted 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 spend their lives searching for the other half to complete them.

Is this true?
Penguins mate for life, does that mean that they have found their soulmate?
How come it is so hard for humans to love?
Will I ever know the answers to my questions?
Will I ever find my other half?

  2. Good post :)

    Soulmates are real, we all have a soulmate ♥

    The Greek mythology has a song you can find/search on youtube in case you want to include it on your post just do a edit/update.

    Origin of Love in 'Hedwig and the Angry Inch' imho is the best song ever ♥

  3. Great post. I can really relate to this post- I always wonder if the whole soulmate thing is true. I wish my soulmate would just come and find me already.
