Soul Mate verses Life Mate

It is easier to find your mate, even the life mate you might end up with in you marriage than the mate your Soul longs for… You can meet someone out of infatuation, through happenstance or through active pursuits and probably find success and create a life mate.

You can choose someone out of attraction, affection and combine the feelings your heart is subscribing to and combine that with the brains logic and make the best of the relationship and find love.

This allows for many relationships to foster and grow and be happy, but not truly happy and not “perfect”. Most people settle for whom they are with, or settle because the effort to find the “perfect” person is too much to handle, to hard and it is easier to settle and make the best of your situation than to seek out passion.

When people settle, they create a life of everyday existence but it lacks romance.

If the life mate choice is based on both emotion and logic and reason, then the food for the soul is missing – spirituality. If a choice is made without spirit or soul as in this case, passion cannot exist. This is very humanistic, skeptical; fear based and can lead to a harder life and marriage.

The marriage or relationship that is created out of spiritual connectedness and built with the foundations of passion, love and trust can endure any challenge, and makes for a tremendous team and a foundation for a family to create the type of environment that foster trust, safety and love.

The Soul Mate lives in our core, with out end. It is this core that only our spiritual heart and mind can trust and the only thing that should be used to choose a mate. Logic based decisions are humanistic based and are subject to being fallible, and imperfect and can lead to an imitation of what the Soul really needs.

With Trust and Love, Passion and Respect, true dreams, goals and aspirations become more real and more readily realized.

Attributes of a Soul Mate:

# They make you more powerful and strong when you are a team, more so than when you are apart
# That Soul with whom you experience life in a deep meaningful way, adds to life, adds to the experience
# Perfection to you, not a perfect soul, but creates perfection in the space between the two Souls
# Soul mates do not destroy each other, rather they give birth and foster life
# Matched to you, to help your journey in life (some call this predestined)
# Finding who we are at our core of existence and seeing the other person there with an open hand.
# The Soul that which your heart longs for, looks for, needs and cannot beat in perfect rhythm without that connection
# The person who transcends the physical plane of existence and is a spiritual extension of your soul
# The person who does not hinder you, where you never have to rationalize or justify how much they love or support you.
# Soul Mates are always aware of their own spirit and nature and have their eyes wide open to each other and the purpose of life and family
# Soul Mates travel in parallel and in concert with each other and create a relationship that is stronger together than alone. Sometimes the parallels are unknown to each other until they cross path and find each other.
# Soul mates put each other and the union above their own individual concerns or journey. When this happens, the individual’s dreams are supported and they become complimentary to the union and the relationship becomes even stronger
# Soul Mates bring REAL LOVE into each other’s lives.
# Soul Mates awaken your Soul and create the ability for you to learn more about what you are meant to be
# Soul Mates complement you
# Soul Mate experience who you are, what you are and the experiences of life (not the things you do, the things you possess)
# Soul Mates make you stronger, better and help you more fully realize life

# Soul Mates hear the harmony of your Soul and dance to the song in your heart in perfect unison
