Real meaning of Soulmate

Meeting your soulmate doesn't guarantee "happily ever after." Things won't get easier when you find that special someone, and in fact, they might get even harder. Ultimately, a soulmate is someone with whom you can grow, and the only way to grow together is to face challenges together. So if you put your heart and soul into a relationship, stick with it through the ups and downs, even when you question whether it's meant to be, and you might look back decades later and realize that you were with your soulmate all along. True love with your soulmate does not grow on its own: it must be cultivated and continually nurtured.

When bad things happen, shrug and smile :-)

When bad things happen (and they will, no matter what) shrug and smile.
Remind yourself that:
+ Life goes on.
+ Don't let things make you upset or angry.
~Remember it's your choice to get bent out of shape.
~Learn from the experience. Focus on the big picture.
+ You win some, you lose some.
+ This too will pass.
+ You can't please everybody.
+ We live and learn.
+ Don't sweat the small stuff.
+ Remember that sometimes bad things lead to the best things.

Question to you - my friend

I have a question for you. What would a good friend do when you are in a difficult situation? Help you? Or just claim "You are a good friend of mine"?

Strengthen your relationship

When you discuss about your relationships with your partner-
1. in the right spirit the acceptance of weaknesses is counted as strength;
2. finding solutions to disparities. The need to make decisions, tentative or final, is absolutely vital. The knowledge that something will be done about a disparity creates a desire in partners to accomplish it. This in itself is positive.
3. openness. Letting down one's defences is not an easy undertaking particularly where feelings are involved. To let your partner into your private space is, in fact, the ultimate stage of Fulfilment.
4. both must focus your discussion on the main purpose, which is the improvement of your relationship.

Phobia and numbers

666: Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia (literally, "fear of the number six hundred sixty-six")
13: Triskaidekaphobia (from Greek tris=three, kai=and, deka=ten) is fear of the number 13.

Apart from numbers, do you dislike or fear a stranger or a foreigner who is significantly different from you?
Hmm, then, you have Xenophobia ;-).

People pleaser

Late Harriet Braiker in her 2001 bestselling book "The Disease to Please - Curing the People-Pleasing Syndrome" - has stated "the People Pleaser will suppress his/her own needs in order to satisfy the perceived needs of other".

C-section of heart

I did a C-section of a heart and I noticed ......

Oh! no sound, no beat
no blood, no veins
wondered, is it a second-grade plastic plaything
worn out with the time.

But, noticed a lot of holes
on the walls of the heart,
probably the warmth flowed out from these,
pulling out all the essentials along with it.

What do I do with this lifeless object?
Do I throw it away or sew it to conceal?
Then a thought struck me,
Why not donate to a person, who has no HEART.

Life Partner ... Friend

Friend = ONLY Friend
Life Partner = Friend ++++ Many other Roles
Life partner is also a friend, but a friend need not be your life partner. Though life partner plays many roles, yet most of them are never satisfied with that relationship.

Life Partner = Always their for/with U, You are P1 in Life.
Friend = Always their for U(tho' not in person), afer all the other P1s in their Life. For Example: You are seriously ill and your Friend's spouse is a little sick. You Friend would take care of their life partner and then come for you.

A very few are blessed with the wisdom to know the value of a true life partner.
