soulmates....

i am a great fan of paulo coelho... when i read his work, it gives me answers.. answers to questions that trouble the soul...
but i found a new philoshophy that i can truely identify with... i may seem to have magical thinking...but i guess theres no life without magic!
this girl brida is in search of her soulmate... n the path is full of risks...failure..disappointment..n disillusion....but u have to try relentless in ur search for love..
the whole of mans life is summed up by his search for his soulmate.n watever he achieves is incomplete without his soulmate...
your soulmate cud be anywhere on earth.. n if they r in pain you too suffer however unconsciously a portion of their pain...one cud encounter his soulmate for months, days or even moments...but they bring in love so intense that it justifies the rest of our days...
one can let his soulmate go unnoticed...n he will be condemned to the worst torture....lonliness.......
how does one recognise his soulmate...n wat is a soulmate?
our soul divides into two which further divides into a male half n a female half... such that a person cud have more than one soulmates...anywhere on earth....
n then y do we feel a special connection with people we hardly know...y do we understand them...y does it pain when they r in trouble... n y even those few moments justify the rest of our lives...
u see that strange light in the eyes n feel drawn to them...as if we know them since life existed...
i have met people who make me feel m just like them...who made life meaningful even without a relation to name n who came into my life from nowhere but keep me longing to to see them, meet them n live with them ....
i wish i can live the rest of my life with one such soulmate...cos i wud recognise him n wish he too cud see that light in my eyes....
