“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 mate’s 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, and make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life.”

I read this to him, and asked him if he thinks we’re soul mates. “Yes.” Nice to know I’ve impacted his life just as much as he has mine. Thankful for every lesson I’ve learned thus far.
