Eyes Wide Shut

Have you ever passed judgment on someone, simply because of their age and/or the way they look? I have and recently and I almost missed out on meeting and getting to know an amazing person.

Recently I met someone. Someone who's smart, funny, interesting, intriguing, sexy and mature. Someone I almost passed up because he's a few years younger them me and "there was no way in hell I could find myself connected to such a man." (I know that sounds completely crazy and yes, I am crazy. But, please bear with me and hopefully I'll be able to explain.)

Don't worry, I'm not getting ahead of myself here. Just because I MAY want to get in to this hot, 23 year old guys pants, this fact has nothing to do what what I'm about to say....

ok maybe a little... HA!

Everyone has a soul mate, right? At least that's what I believe. People all over the world believe that we are all searching for someone to make us whole and to share our journey of life with. The word "Soul mate" is a term that is seriously over used and not always really understood.

So, I did some research and found a few things....

----------------------------------------------
The Classical - Greek mythology of soul mates:
According to the story, our ancestors once had 2 heads, 4 arms. They did something to offend 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 soul mate.
----------------------------------------------
Soul mate definitions:
Two people compatible with each other in point of view, or sensitivity. Someone who you have a deep affinity.

A soul mate is someone who has the locks to fit our keys, and the keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are.

Isn't that beautiful? It almost makes you want to puke!

Anyway, all that being said, have you ever found yourself talking to someone and you feel completely comfortable, almost too comfortable. There's no awkward beginning, it's just seamless. You find yourself constantly amazed by that person.

There's an extraordinary level of communication that you can't explain to anyone, but yet you both seem to understand. You can just be together without even having to talk. It is not a physical experience although passion, attraction and arousal is definitely present.

The other persons mind, attracted you like an aphrodisiac undiscovered by man and you can't seem to get enough. The energy flowing from each other is incredible, and it sometimes can scare the hell out of you both.

I asked a few people what they thought a soul mate was. The answers were all very similar, "The one person who know me better then I know myself and they still love and accept me." Wow, that's powerful!

I've also found in my research, that no matter the age, male or female most people have this same thought and hope.

It's amazing how even though as we get older, we THINK we know what we want out of life. Yet, we still allow our own hang-ups, and pre-conceived notions to get in the way. We think our eyes are wide open, but in reality they're still closed tightly.

Don't keep your eyes closed, open them up and truly see. Who knows, you might just meet your soul mate...or have some really great sex! Either way, it's a win win situation!
