SOUL MATES We have heard many times the idea upon your planet you call "soul mate" and that idea certainly can exist. It is simply representative of a particular kind of agreement that has been made. But do remember that every individual you interact with serves you by reflecting to you what you need to know at that moment. Therefore, by the fundamental definition of soul mate, every individual you interact with at any particular moment is for that moment your soul mate- because they serve you best at that moment. As we have mentioned before, our society does recognize that now and then there can be single individuals who match themselves for the duration of a life span who can provide for each other all the reflections that each other needs to see in order to grow in the way they want to. But we do not put an expectation on the relationship that it "must" be that way and we do not know if it is a "one-on-one" until we reach the end of the life span. We look back and say, "Well, it seems no one else came along but you...so I guess that was a one-on-one." We do not put expectations on how it must be; we do not regret how it was or was not because we live in the moment and trust ourselves. So when you live in the moment and you trust yourself by being the fullest individual you can be you will always attract whoever is appropriate for that moment. They can serve you to become who you want to be and you can serve them to allow them to become more of who they want to be. That's what relationships are for: looking into a mirror and seeing another aspect of yourself. Once again, you can simply understand that an individual who needs to learn a certain thing may attach themselves to another individual who has already learned it. The idea is, you are being of service. After all, if you say you love this individual then you are desirous of serving them to be who they want to be.
