SOUL MATES "It was the way you loved me, which reminded me I was deserving of self love. It was the way you believed in me, which reminded me I was deserving of being believed in. It was the way you showed me the definition of a friend which reminded me I am worthy of befriending. It was the light I saw through you which reminded me of the light in myself. It was EVERYTHING you did which reminded me WHO I am. Your soul mate will ALWAYS be your greatest reflection of self.... A soul mate is not someone who makes the other vulnerable... Love is not pain... Is not weakness. When love becomes an attachment, dependency, or a crutch, THEN it is a weakness but a soul mate is meant to RISE with you… You both reflect and remind each other of self. You both walk each other back home into the heart space through reflections of each other. You both guide, shape, learn, and grow as one yet as separate. A soul mate is one who takes place in our rebirthing. They are the ultimate mirror in which they WILL trigger us and test us.. But what we don't realize is the divinity in this; a soul mate won't just reflect the good but the bad in ourselves and THAT is where there is room for change and growth as individuals. So many just want the sunshine and no rain but everyone knows the result of a drought... The rain is NEEDED to push the seed beyond gravities forces and beyond earths womb into its physical beauty of a flower🌻 We are all that flower which needs the balance of sun and rain, good and bad. Embrace your companion and reflection, realize the divinity in your triumphs and in your lessons… A soul mate is someone who softens our hearts by uncovering and healing any unsettled or haunting trauma within us; as a result, we become more gentle to ourselves and so to others. A soul mate teaches us how to properly love ourselves again through being reminded of all that we see in them. We are supposed to realize all that we 'fall in love with' in our soul mate is literally a reflection of self so they are quite literally reminding you of how to fall in love with self… Everything they are, you are for we are one.” —Tyler Ugalde 🍃🌲🍃 #poetryandprose #moonleafmood #whateveritakes https://www.instagram.com/p/B8q9F4aJhCw/?igshid=yvx3ykqojamg
