my grandparents have been together for years.. and it wasnt until their 50th anniversary that i found out that they had an arranged marriage. i thought they were soul mates...i found out that at first she didnt really wanna marry him because she wanted to live life, but ironically they ended up having 9 kids together and have been together since. kinna weird..if you think about it... a complete stranger becoming the person you spend the rest of your life with.. do you have a special someone right now? think he or shes the one?

No, I have to say I really don't believe in any of those things. I especially don't beieve in having one true romantic soulmate. I believe that we have several "soulmates" who are people that we have experienced several lives with. I believe these people can be parents, siblings, friends, spouses, children, coworkers etc. I think we keep bumping into people over and over again in our lifetimes. I believe that we are the authors of our own experiences, from moment to moment.

I never believed (read never understood) the concept of soulmate (some might say i never had one) But i sure do hope that serendipity is something(and i love the movie by the way) and maybe i will meet the one meant for me.
