I wouldn’t call it “other half” but I definitely believe in soulmates. I used to think that you have one soulmate for your whole life and that specific person, soul, spirit connects with you over and over in different lifetimes, but now I think that we have a few of those. I think we have certain soulmates for certain times of our lives. I believe everybody shows up at the right time. I’ve met two people that really felt …important to me. One of those was so damn strong I just can’t shake it. Anyways, I think we’re all whole beings on our own, absolutely. And I think that certain people come into our lives to love us the way we needed to be loved at that time, or to expose parts of ourselves to ourselves that we wouldn’t have seen without them, or to make us confront fears, to challenge us. But yes, overall, to love and love and love. They come to wake us up, to make us grow. You’re still an individual and still capable of being independent if you are committed to loving a person. It can really be so simple and I think we mess this up a lot. We overthink it all and the bottom line is loving. Two wholes, growing and loving. And not always staying. You will always be wholly yourself, with or without another person.
