“يعتقد المرء بأن توأم الروح هو الشخص الأنسب له،وهذا ما يريده الجميع.
ولكن توأم الروح الحقيقي ليس سوى مرآة،إنه الشخص الذي يريك كل ما يعيقك،
الشخص الذي يلفت انتباهك إلى نفسك لكي تغيري حياتك،

لأنه يمزق جدرانك ويهزك بقوة لكي تستفيقي،ولكن ان تعيشي مع توأم روحك إلى الأبد؟
كلا.
هذا مؤلم جدا.
فتوائم الروح يدخلون حياتك فقط ليكشفوا لك طبقة اخرى من ذاتك،ثم يرحلون.
وشكرا لله على ذلك.
غير أن مشكلتك انك لا تسمحين لتوأم روحك بالرحيل...”

But never, ever, ever give up.”

But when I start to tell them,

The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.”
