“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...”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

“El fracaso, si es que queremos llamarlo así, es la expresión que usamos para decir que el vínculo ha dejado de ser nutritivo para alguno de los dos. (No somos para todos todo el tiempo ni todos son para nosotros todo el tiempo.) Cada uno de los encuentros en mi vida ha sido como cada libro que leí: una lección de vida que me condujo a ser éste que soy.”
― Jorge Bucay, El camino del encuentro
