Yearning for the other half

[doniellemonique]

When we look at the world of relationships there are many myths forming modern day perceptions of what a relationship ‘should’ be like. We have marriage, engagement, dating, relationships and friendships to put it in simplified boxes of comprehension. When it comes down to soul mates there are so many different views of what one is.

So I decided to

Ooooh, I would love to talk with you about this! Are you going to be at the stress-free thanksgiving this weekend?

[doniellemonique]

Yes! I cant wait to chit-chat!

[nobleds]

Yes, I too have many thoughts on this for discussion. I may write something up or we can just chat sometime.

But on a less serious note; isn't leaving yourself open to fate kin of an oxymoron. It is not up to you to decide to accept or deny it.

[doniellemonique]

Actually, what I am doing is allowing whatever to happen. I am not closing the door on what I perceive fate to be or what I feel it brigns to my life. I am simply embracing the possibility of it and at that time my decision will come in to play of whether to accept or deny it when its staring me in the face.

Interesting thoughts. Hard for me to sort it out since my life has had some major changes. Sometimes you look at someone and realize that they are going to be an important part of what you will be doing for the rest of your life.

The book is better than the movie :)

[doniellemonique]

Exactly and the person you are looking at could be playing the important role of soul mate. Like I said, I think changes are part of the path of getting to that one person.

I will have to read the book now!

Don't be surprised if you don't like the book. I picked it up after the movie (which I loved) and put it down.

[chaptal]

Ouch. The book is gorgeous. Once you get past the first fifty pages. I admit being thrown off after the first death.

[scottwoods]

WELL. Intense indeed!

I'm all about that sort of thing, so I know exactly what you mean. A part of me always felt something like this, but I never found it to work out quite the way I imagined it.

Here's hoping you're right!

[doniellemonique]

I honestly think it starts with a 'feeling' about the person, thus setting it all in motion. What can I say, I am a romantic! lol

[marced4life]

Here's hoping she is too and that we'll finally have those gorgeous mulatto babies.

You gonna be at Dave's this weekend?

[scottish_like]

Not sure yet. Trying, though.

[doniellemonique]

Well said, my dear. Its very 'wide-eyed' to just allow destiny, fate, or love happen, but its beautiful when you think about it. Imagine having the comment of "we will end up together" said to you and then seeing it, that love, that resolve, through their eyes. wow!
