“Хората мислят, че сродна душа е онзи, който идеално ти пасва, и всички искат това. Но истинската сродна душа е огледало — такъв човек ти показва всичко, което те задържа, насочва към теб собственото ти внимание, за да можеш да промениш живота си. Истински сродната душа е може би най-важният човек, който някога ще срещнеш, защото събаря стените ти и те шамаросва, за да се събудиш. Но да живееш със сродна душа завинаги? Нее. Твърде болезнено е. Сродните души идват в живота само за да ти разкрият нов пласт от теб самата, а после си тръгват. И слава Богу, че е така.”

“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 mates 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, then introduce you to your spiritual master...”

“People always fall in love with the most perfect aspects of each other’s personalities. Who wouldn’t? Anybody can love the most wonderful parts of another person. But that’s not the clever trick. The really clever trick is this: Can you accept the flaws? Can you look at your partner’s faults honestly and say, ‘I can work around that. I can make something out of it.’? Because the good stuff is always going to be there, and it’s always going to pretty and sparkly, but the crap underneath can ruin you.”
