Morning Pages


I like to wake up and spill out my thoughts, forming words, getting them off my chest. Out of my heart. I don't like feeling like I have the same complaints morning after morning. I don't know how much of ourselves we are supposed to change or sacrifice to accommodate another. I don't know if the connection I am searching for is something I only read about in books, see at the theater.
Can anyone tell me how it feels when you have found your soul mate? That partner who wants to share in your tiniest accomplishments and loves you more than you could have ever imagined?

hmmm.

for me it felt like home when i met Carsten. like i had been with him before in another life or have played with him as a child. when i am with him, i feel like my best self. i feel safe with him...and that is huge. i have no doubts about how he feels, nor do i doubt.

i have loved before when i wanted so badly for them to be my soulmate but i struggled a lot with harmony and calm in those relationships. i was always unsure and my self esteem was bruised (or theirs were).

we can chat more about this over email if you want.

i can honestly say that my husband is my soulmate and i never could say that before with anyone else.

love to you on this journey...

I have to mirror pretty much everything Boho said. When I met Jimmy it felt like home. Instantly. That is the only way I know how to describe it. There was an instant recognition there, as if we already knew each other. It was, and remains, the most powerful connection I have ever felt, and he feels the same way.

I think soulmates reflect who we truly are down to the core and that is why there is an instant recognition when we meet them. And because of this there are also no questions. That is why people say, "you just know".

In past relationships where I wanted desperately for that person to be the one, there was always a little voice whispering to me... you also just know when you are not with a soulmate as well.

I don't know if this helps you, but I hope it does.

I felt it when I understood that I had always wanted exactly the kind of relationship I'm in now. My boyfriend is actually my best friend, and he knows more than anyone else about me - I don't want to keep any secrets from him because he never interrogates me.

When he is near me, I feel completely secure.

And he makes me beautiful)

yes ... as boho girl and schmoops said ... when i met my husband it like coming home, it was like being alone except someone else was there ~ by that i mean that i was and am able to be me, the me that i am when i am alone without masks or worry ...

being with him was so easy and early on we spooned and i remember at some point thinking that if i could be anywhere i wouldn't want to be anywhere but exactly where i was, wrapped in his arms ...

he is my best friend, he makes me a better person and our love is like no other love i have ever experienced ... i just knew, no questions ... and five years later our love is only stronger and he still makes my heart beat ...
