Finding our soul mate ...."Elizabeth Gilbert"

“People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is 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'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 yourself to you, and then leave.

A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...”

― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

"The Reality" by Gibran Khalil Gibran

  “The Reality of The Other Person Lies Not In What He Reveals To You, But What He Cannot Reveal To You.
   Therefore, If You Would Understand Him, Listen Not To What He Says, But Rather To What He Does Not Say...”

"To bring happiness..." by Buddha

        To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. 

       If a man can control his mind, he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.

"Looking for a reason" by Paulo Coelho

What is a warrior of light?

Warriors of light keep the spark in their eyes.

They are in the world, are part of other people’s lives, and began their journey without a rucksack and sandals. They are often cowards. They don’t always act right.

Warriors of light suffer over useless things, have some petty attitudes, and at times feel they are incapable of growing.

...

Every warrior of light has felt the fear of joining in battle.

Every warrior of light has once lost faith in the future.

...

That is what makes them warriors of light; because they have has been through all this and have not lost the hope of becoming better.

...

That is why they are warriors of light.

Because they make mistakes.

Because they wonder.

Because they look for a reason – and they will certainly find one.

"Marriage" by Gibran Khalil Gibran

    

      "Let there be spaces in your togetherness, And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.

       Love one another but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. 

       Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf. 

      Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.

      Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping. For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts..."

"Life's Secret" by Neale Donald Walsch

       " The deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. You are not discovering yourself, but creating yourself anew. Seek therefore, not to find out Who You Are, but seek to determine Who You Want To Be..."

"Our deepest fear ..." by Marianne Williamson

      "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
