i just wanted to quote some lines when Brida asked Wicca about “soul mates”.

*******

“..what do you mean by ’soul mate’?” Brida asked again.“… our souls divides in

two, and those new souls are in turn transformed into two and so, within a few

generations, we are scattered over a large part of Earth.. that is why, as well as

dividing into two, we also find ourselves. and that process of finding ourselves is

called Love. because when a soul divides, it always divides into a male part & a

female part.”

***


wicca said to Brida… “in each life, we feel a mysterious obligation to find at least

one of those soul mates. the greater love that separated them feels pleased with

the love that brings them together again.”

***


“but how will i know who my soul mate is?” asked brida.

“..you could tell your soul mate by the light in their eyes and since time began,

that has been how people have recognized their true love… by risking

failure,disappointment,disillusion, but never ceasing in your search for love. as

long as you keep looking, you will triumph in the end.”

***


“is it possible to meet more than one soul mate?”

“yes” thought Wicca with a certain bitterness. and when that happens, the heart

is divided, and the result is pain and suffering. yes we can meet 3 or 4 soul mates,

because we are many and we are scattered.”

***


“the essence of creation is one & one alone,” she said. “and that essence is called

love. love is the force that brings us back together, in order to condense the

experience dispersed in many lives & many parts of the world.”

***

“if are soul mates are well, then we, too, will be happy. if they are not well, we

will suffer, however unconsciously, a portion of their pain… even if it is only for a

matter of moments, because those moments bring with them a love so intense

that it justifies the rest of our days.”

***


“we can also allow our soul mate to pass us by, without accepting him or her, or

even noticing. then we will need another incarnation in order to find that soul

mate. and because of our selfishness,we will be condemned to the worst torture

humankind ever invented for itself: LONELINESS”

***


“finding your soul mate is something that only happens in fairy tales,” she told herself, half-joking.
