Do You Believe We Have Soul Mates?
Review a previous question on the subject:
Vicky Asks:
Do you believe that certain people can be “destined” to be with each other like a “soul mate?” If so, how come not everyone ends up with “theirs?”
Lucid’s Thoughts:
That is a great question Vic, and thanks for writing in! I am going to try and make a very long answer as short and detailed as possible. Destiny is an ultimate fate, and you are asking me if I believe that we have a pre-assignment to one person; a soul mate.
I believe we have soul family‘s {clans} that we choose before we come here. I believe everyone that crosses our path, whether it be temporary or permanently, are there for specific reasons.
When you are with someone romantically there could be an extra sense of connectivity, and again our spirit recognizes that person as one of the people we chose to be with here on earth in this life time. Sometimes you may feel more of that connection with people you are emotionally invested in. This usually happens if this person has multiple roles in your life, i.e. Your souse may be your best friend, lover, teacher etc.
So, yes we have soul mates. I just don’t believe we are bound to only one, and I do not believe it is limited to romance. Your soul mates are your family members, best friends, spouses, children, etc. Even the strangers that only give us those one second valuable lessons could be; your nemesis can also be a part of this “clan”. All who live in your world, during your life, are your soul mates.
Now, the second part of your question…Not everyone ends up with a life partner in the traditional sense of soul mates for many different reasons. Though we have these soul family’s, we still do have Free Will and a person has the right to choose and change their life at any given time.
It might not be a part of their life plan to have a person by their side calling them their “soul mate”. We are all here on different levels, and learning different lessons. As a matter of fact, someone’s lesson may be to learn how to live without a constant partner. Or, maybe that person is meant to have several “soul mates” and that is why they have not stayed with one for too long.
I could go one forever with subject, but that is not my goal, I try and keep these answers short.

I thought my husband was my soul-mate……. many of you must have thought the same thing. The only thing is, after 20 years of being together… he had other plans. I won’t go into any of that. But we did remain friends.
Now, as to another person in my life, I have a very dear friend that I met thru church and we always say we are soul-mates. She is my best friend, I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have her in my life! She is like a true sister to me. We can say anything to each other and not be judgemental about any subject. The important thing is that she understands me as much as I do her. That don’t happen all the time when you just have friends.
If you don’t find that mate here on earth…. then you will be able to get one on the other side of the veil.
I really know that you will experience a mate some time… if not now, then in the eternities. That’s my story and I sticking to it! LOL Enjoy your life while you can, think positive and good things will come to you, pray about it, meditate or what ever you do to console yourself.
Thanks Lucid, this was a good subject to write about. Everyone….. Enjoy your week!
