Soulmates

Dear John,
Thanks for your lovely letter and quotation, wonderful as usual:-)
I’m glad that you enjoyed my quotation and photo.

Speaking about your quotation, I appreciated it. That’s a very good idea – love inspires you, makes you better, helps to open yourself, open your mind and nature. That’s really important. When you’re alone, until you haven’t met your soul mate, your partner, you can’t call yourself a complete person, you can’t be sure that you’ve opened everything in yourself, that you’ve learnt everything about inner world of you…

You become complete only when you meet your partner. That doesn’t mean you’re ill or you’re only a “half” in this world (a feminist is waking up in me:), you’re complete as individual, but you’re not complete as a person; until you don’t feel love inside you, until you don’t have desire to share your affection with someone special, you’re not complete, you haven’t opened all the sides of yourself, you’re like a book you haven’t read to the end. Of course, it’s not so easy to find our soul mate…sometimes it takes us long years… But nobody promised that everything in this life will be easy.

Returning to your quotation, I’d like to continue it with mine:  “In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything, and two minus one equals nothing.” (Mignon McLaughlin)
What do you think about this one?

Thanks much for your photo! It’s so lovely, and so home-like, I enjoyed it much!)) I’ll try to find something nice for you too and send with this letter.
It’s the end of weekend, I want to go to sleep earlier.
So take care of yourself,
kisses, sincerely yours Nina!

Hello my dearest Nina!

Your letters and photos are always special to me, I am always so glad to receive them. You look like a beautiful angel in that splendid white dress, your make-up is lovely too. Thank you dear, I like the photo very much.

I hope you like this quotation. “God gave us two arms, two legs, two ears and two feet, but why only one heart? Because the other heart was given to your soul mate for you to find.” (Brandon Hofe) It continues again from yours with the arithmetic and it’s also a nice and original way to express the same sort of ideas. It ties in with what you were saying about finding your soul mate. It’s not easy. It’s possible to get it wrong which is why you have to listen to what your heart is telling you. You have to trust yourself and your instincts and if you do that, when the special person arrives in your life, you will know. You will recognise them as your soul mate. Then you become complete. Both of you become complete.

Yes,  we are not guaranteed to find happiness in this world but we all seek it. Happiness comes from within too.

Have a great day
Take care, kisses
John.
