karmatic soulmates... soulmate cusp?!
Well I have returned to insane journal. Four years ago greatest journal dumped me... and I never really caught on to another journal writing community. I suppose I will give this one a second chance.
In my first entry of wow... four years... I'd like to talk about something that has been bugging me. And that topic is: Kindred spirits and soul mates. I want to know, if you meet your kindred spirt or soul mate, does that mean you'll eventually get married? or that you're supposed to fall in love, or is it something else entirely?
Usingenglish.com says "A kindred spirit is someone who feels and thinks the way you do."
Okay thats pretty basic,and a pretty easy definition to understand. So maybe I'm not looking for the definition of kindred spirit, because my main reason for this post doesn't feel or think the same way I do, and we certainly don't agree on anything really.
"Also, kindred soul . An individual with the same beliefs, attitudes or feelings as oneself."
SO definitely kindred spirit, or kindred soul isn't really what I'm going for. Glad I got that out of the way. SO! its time to move on to soul mates.
the meaning of soulmate comes from this:
The concepts of soulmates arose from Greek mythology. According to the story, our ancestors once had 2 heads, 4 arms. They did something to offend a god so that god punished them by splitting them down the middle, resulting in the creation of humans. As a punishment, we are condemned to spend our lives searching for the other half, our soulmates.(http://www.solvedating.com)
and I know this is correct, since I've studied it in my poetry class.
www.solvedating.com also says this:
Companion Soulmates
These are people that we encounter through their life. These are usually friends, teachers, mentors, or other people who have helped you achieving a life's goal or helped you out of a crisis.
okay so I'm kind of getting somewhere. Companion soul mates, not someone you want to marry, but someone who is a friend who has helped you through a crisis.
Now to help me out here, I'm going to give you this link to my very last entry. http://wovenmoonbeam.insanejournal.com/12770.html Its definitely something I still feel. I was talking to the guy last night, and we agreed that we had been lead to each other and it seems as though we should be entirely together, as husband and wife. But, for some reason it just doesn't feel right. First of all, I don't have any desire to have intercourse with him or to marry him. And though he has always liked me in that way a little bit, he also says it just doesn't feel right, he thinks that maybe this isn't the right time, we just have to go through some stuff first. I really don't know if I agree with this. I mean, I've never wanted to marry him, why would I want to in a couple years or more. Its like, just cause he's a male and I'm a female and we're emotionally close, we HAVE to have sex...
okay now to get back to companion soulmates.
okay, this guy, I was friends with him while he had cancer, and he was always there for me when I was depressed. (depression is nothing in comparison to cancer, divorces, etc... but all the same he still helped me).
(Passionmates are apparently partners that are drawn toward eachother based primarily on ego wants and needs. I assume this means a great lustful relationships. Yeah this is me and my friend with benefits...all sex no talk. :P)
well I think I need to do more research.
we could have previous lives together... all kinds of things.
but if you have any thoughts, feel free to comment.
