I am the girl you fool around with, before you meet the love of your life.

People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. A true soul mate is probably the most important person you’ll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave. A soul mate’s purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life…

It’s funny how you can forget everything except people loving you. Maybe that’s why humans find it so hard getting over love affairs. It’s not the pain they’re getting over, it’s the love.

If I’m not with somebody who really excites or inspires me, then I’d rather be by myself.

My kids are starting to notice I’m a little different from the other dads. “Why don’t you have a straight job like everyone else?” they asked me the other day. I told them this story: In the forest, there was a crooked tree and a straight tree. Every day, the straight tree would say to the crooked tree, “Look at me…I’m tall, and I’m straight, and I’m handsome. Look at you…you’re all crooked and bent over. No one wants to look at you.” And they grew up in that forest together. And then one day the loggers came, and they saw the crooked tree and the straight tree, and they said, “Just cut the straight trees and leave the rest.” So the loggers turned all the straight trees into lumber and toothpicks and paper. And the crooked tree is still there, growing stronger and stranger every day.

But with myself, I am deeply, profoundly and unconditionally enough.

Actually that’s my secret — I can’t even talk about you to anybody because I don’t want any more people to know how wonderful you are.

“Wrong timing? I’ve heard people talking about it. I don’t believe there’s anything like “wrong timing” or that you meet someone when you’re not ready for each other. I truly believe that it’s always the right time for you to go through specific situations whenever they happen. I learned that everything happens at the right time for a good reason. There’s a reason why you meet specific people at a specific time, there’s a reason for people leaving you when you’re at your lowest. (And there’s a reason for your relationship to end, right when you start depending on the other person to make you happy and love you the way you should actually love yourself.) It might take some time but eventually you’ll come to realize what a blessing certain events are. Sometimes what seemed to have a negative effect on your life will turn out as the most appreciative lessons in your life. There’s a a plan for each of us and it’s such a liberating thought to know that we don’t have to understand it yet. That’s life. Stop denying the present moment. Flow with it. Have faith.“
