A True Soul Mate

Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn 
your 
world around. You tell them things that you've never shared with another soul and 
they 
absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more.You share hopes for 
the future, 
dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many 
disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, 
you can't wait 
to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not 
embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you 
make a fool 
of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not 
good 
enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that 
make 
you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or 
competition but 
only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry 
about what 
they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem 
insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable 
treasures 
kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back 
and are 
so clear and vivid it's like being young again. Colors seem brighter and more 
brilliant. 
Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn't exist at 
all. 
A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day's work and 
always 
brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there's no need for continuous 
conversation, but you find you're quite content in just having them nearby. Things 
that 
never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are 
important to 
this person who is so special to you. 
You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple 
things bring 
them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the 
horizon. 
You open your heart knowing that there's a chance it may be broken one day and 
in 
opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed 
possible. 
You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true 
pleasure 
that's so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend 
and 
possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely 
different, 
exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a 
part 
of your life.
