  1. daniniowa said: I used to think it was a part of faith, then I found mine that wasn’t part of my faith at all! Yes I believe in soulmates, but it’s a very difficult thing to define.
  2. I agree, while I am a religious person I am not sure if I believe in soul mates. I believe that there are people out there who are better for us than others but to say that there is only one person, I am not so sure. I rationalize this by saying God gave us free will, we get to choose the person we are going to love forever I think in any place we may be we could find a person/ persons. We have to choose to make it work forever..It is mind blowing for sure. 
  3. Could one have more than one soul mate then? What if something were to  happen to a persons soul mate?

 

  1. beautifulbookborrower said: I am curious, too. I feel like there’s probably one perfect person for everyone but a hand-full of almost perfect people. I’m a definite romantic, though; I don’t believe in wasting time with so-so guys when the right one could be out there somewhere
  2. I agree on not wasting time, I mean I have friends who date guys to pass time. They know that they will  not be with the guy forever. As soon as one knows they will not be with someone forever/ want to choose to try for forever…move on. I love the idea of one perfect person, I just can’t wrap my head around the idea. There are so many people!

So, on the way to work this morning my favorite radio talk show was talking about soul mates. I was curious, what do you all think about soul mates? Do you believe there is one person designed specifically for each person? Do you believe religion plays into it?

I am just curious as to the opinions of others about this topic.

So, I follow 90% fitblrs..I use tumblr as a source of motivation and a way to stay current on trends, tips, and facts about fitness. I however, primarily use my blog as a special space for me to reflect. I think I am going to add some fitness, stats, and progress information. I love reading about others health/ fitness journey but have never had the courage to tell my own. I think I will do that, why  not?! The Tumblr community really is so wonderful.

There are times when we feel lost, like we are wondering around with no real purpose. I know I have felt like that several times throughout my life. There were times when I felt alone, when I felt that I wasn’t good enough, when I was envious of others, when I wasn’t satisfied with ME. I think we all struggle with those thoughts, I still struggle with them from time to time. It gives me such peace to know that God knew all the days of my life before they happened; he knew I would feel these feelings. He expected me and knew me before I was born. When I am faced with struggles and I feel life spiraling out of control I try to remember that our time on earth is as “transient as a shadow”. Compared to the eternity we were created for, everything else seems so petty. 

 

“Your birth was no mistake or mishap, and your life is no fluke of nature. Your parents may not have planned you, but God did. He was not at all surprised by your birth. In fact, he expected it.”

Today I am feeling so very blessed. As I watch the news and it sinks in that at any moment everything could be taken away; not just material items but family and friends as well. You never know when your life can be completely turned upside down. It blows my mind that we are so barely alive; we are so fragile in this life. Hug your family, tell people you love them, be kind, and forgive those who upset you. In times of tragedy we are reminded that we should be practicing these things every day. We are part of something so much bigger than ourselves.

People who start out with you won’t finish with you. Nothing in this life last forever, what a blessing and a curse.
